I'e normally gotten good service for a couple of years, to three at the most from poly tape. Its strong, not much breakage trouble. As to shorting out, thats more a function of your energizer than the tape itself.

Will ice build up on it, sure, and the sagging will stretch the wire or tape. Got to go retighten it. If you want perminant, might as well go high tensile and do it right. For temporary fence, it is that, temporary and requires some ongoing upkeep.
