I have three strands also. The lowest is about 18"-24" above the ground and the others are spaced about 15" or so above that. I didn't use a ruler, I used my eyeballs and marked a rake handle that I carried from post to post to nail the insulators.
If you are cross fencing or laying out your pastures in such a way that the gates will be in one area, think about making it so that one gate can do double duty (like if you have a lane between pastures or something. Hard for me to explain this early and with only one cup of coffee in me but you can use the gates to form a chute if you wanted - like from one pasture to another.
Metal posts - don't forget to cap them!
Never attribute to malice that which can be adequately explained by stupidity.

People with true credibility and integrity don't need to tell other people how great they are. They also don't need to belittle other people to feel superior.
