#Many poskim hold that the wire on top is acceptable even if it sways in the wind as long as it doesn't fall off the top of the side posts.<ref>Machasit Hashekel 362:18 writes that the wire on top can sway in the wind and although is part of a wall, doesn't have all the stringencies of a wall which cannot sway in the wind at all. Mishna Brurah agrees. Pri Megadim E"A 362:18 argues that every mechitza must be strong enough not to fall down in the wind but it doesn't matter if it would sway in the wind. For the wire on top he writes that it is kosher if it sways as well as it doesn't fall off the side posts. Chazon Ish agrees. However, unlike the above poskim, Mishna Brurah cites Mishkenot Yakov who holds that the wire is completely invalid if it sways in the wind at all.</ref> | #Many poskim hold that the wire on top is acceptable even if it sways in the wind as long as it doesn't fall off the top of the side posts.<ref>Machasit Hashekel 362:18 writes that the wire on top can sway in the wind and although is part of a wall, doesn't have all the stringencies of a wall which cannot sway in the wind at all.

#If the wire goes straight into the pole (Picture 1 and 2) some poskim hold that it is invalid since it is going into the side of the pole and not over the top.<ref>Mishna Brurah 362:64 quoting Pri Megadim</ref> Others hold that it is kosher since the top of the pole is meaningless and can be viewed as though it was removed as long as the wire is still over a pole that is ten tefachim.<ref>[https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14336&st=&pgnum=225 Chazon Ish 71:9]</ref> | |||
# If the wire goes into a pole which is cut out in the middle and there are protrusions on the sides of the slit which extend upward (Picture 3), according to many poskim it is invalid,<ref>Mishna Brurah 362:64 quotes Pri Megadim who is strict about this case.</ref> but if the wire goes into the slit and is flush with the top of the protrusions (Picture 4), according to many poskim it is valid.<ref>Mishna Brurah 362:64 quotes Pri Megadim who is lenient about this case.</ref> Some are lenient in both cases.<ref>[https://www.hebrewbooks.org/pdfpager.aspx?req=14336&st=&pgnum=225 Chazon Ish 71:9]</ref> | |||
