Connecting lead
– An electric conductor, used to connect the energizer to the electric fence or the
earth electrode.
Electric animal fence
particular area.
Electric security fence
physical barrier electrically isolated from the electric fence.
Physical barrier
– A barrier not less than 1.5 m (5') high intended to prevent inadvertent contact with
the pulsed conductors of the electric fence. Physical barriers are typically constructed from vertical
sheeting, rigid vertical bars, rigid mesh, rods or chainwire mesh.
Requirements for electric animal fences
Electric animal fences and their ancillary equipment shall be installed, operated and maintained in a
manner that minimises danger to persons, animals or their surroundings.
Warning!
Avoid contacting electric fence wires especially with the head, neck or torso. Do not
climb over, through or under a multi-wire electric fence. Use a gate or a specially designed
crossing point.
This energizer is not intended for use by persons (including children) with reduced physical, sensory or
mental capabilities, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they have been given supervision or
instruction concerning use of the energizer by a person responsible for their safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that they do not play with the energizer.
Electric animal fence constructions that are likely to lead to the entanglement of animals or persons
shall be avoided.
An electric animal fence shall not be supplied from two separate energizers or from independent fence
circuits of the same energizer.
For any two separate electric animal fences, each supplied from a separate energizer independently
timed, the distance between the wires of the two electric animal fences shall be at least 2.5 m (8'). If
this gap is to be closed, this shall be effected by means of electrically non-conductive material or an
isolated metal barrier.
Barbed wire or razor wire shall not be electrified by an energizer.
A non-electrified fence incorporating barbed wire or razor wire may be used to support one or more
offset electrified wires of an electric animal fence. The supporting devices for the electrified wires shall
be constructed so as to ensure that these wires are positioned at a minimum distance of 150 mm (6")
from the vertical plane of the non-electrified wires. The barbed wire and razor wire shall be earthed at
regular intervals.
Follow our recommendations regarding earthing.
A distance of at least 10 m (33') shall be maintained between the energizer earth electrode and any
other earthing system connected parts such as the power supply system protective earth or the
telecommunication system earth.
