»
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 approx. 10–100 m.

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
