I have run many spans of stuff called Rural C wire down country roads. It is about the same size as flat fiber drop. You do want to put twists in the span to keep it from dancing in the wind. I cannot think of a reason for a 3 span limit. I know of no limit unless it has to do with the way the strength member distributes the stresses.

The specs I've read say not to run more than 3 spans for some reason. Has anyone done this? Is their better attachment hardware than wedge clamps for this application? Thanks. Jason
