or path must be clearly signed at frequent intervals. These warning signs must be clearly visible
and attached to the fence posts or the fence itself. Warning signs must adhere to the following
guidelines:
• Minimum size of 100 mm x 200 mm
• Black lettering (min. font size of 25 mm, on both sides, non-erasable) on a yellow background
with the analogous content „ATTENTION ELECTRIC FENCE" and/or the symbol shown in the
illustration:
Whenever an electric animal fence crosses a public footpath, a non-electrified gate must be
►
erected at this point or an overpass must be available. Electrified wires lying nearby must also be
marked with warning signs.
In general, warning signs must be placed at each gate or access point and at intervals of max.
►
10 m.
2.2 SITE AND INSTALLATION SAFETY
WARNING AGAINST ELECTRICAL VOLTAGES
The following minimum distances must be observed when installing connection lines and electric
►
animal fences near high-voltage lines:
When installing connection lines and electric animal fences near a high-voltage line, they may
►
only be installed at a maximum height of 3 m above the ground. This height must be maintained
on each side of the vertical projection of the outer conductor of the high-voltage line on the
ground. The following distances apply:
• 2 m for high-voltage lines with a nominal voltage up to 1,000 V
• 15 m for high-voltage lines, with a rated voltage of more than 1,000 V
Follow the grounding instructions in the manual.
►
Keep a minimum distance of 10 m between any electrode of the energiser and other grounding
►
systems (e.g. protective grounding of a power distribution system or a grounding of a
telecommunication system).
Ensure that connection lines that are routed inside buildings are effectively insulated from
►
earthed, load-bearing parts of the building. To ensure this, use insulated high-voltage cables.
Ensure that underground connection lines are routed through electrical conduits made from
►
insulating material or otherwise use insulated high-voltage cables.
Ensure that connection lines are not damaged by sinking animal hooves or tractor wheels.
►
When installing the electric animal fence, do not use the electric conduit from any external
►
sources, third parties i.e. telecommunication companies or the main power conduit entering
the building.
The electric animal fence must be no less than 2.5 m away from earthed, metallic objects (e.g.
►
drinking troughs, water pipes). This is particularly important in areas where people may be
present.
Do not cross connection lines and electric animal fence wires over high-voltage or communication
►
lines.
Avoid crossings with high-voltage lines. If this cannot be avoided, the crossing must be made
►
