Reducing the fence voltage output
In some areas, it may desirable to have a reduced fence voltage
output, for example where there is a risk of fire or where there
is a chance that people might come into contact with the
electric fence (e.g. around a house or next to a public
roadway).
To reduce the fence voltage, use the Fence half voltage
terminal (yellow) instead of the Fence full voltage terminal to
connect the energizer to the fence.
When the Fence half voltage terminal (yellow) is used, the
fence voltage will not exceed 5 kV, however the output power
remains the same.
Fence designs
Fences can be constructed to suit the type of livestock and
materials available. Discuss with your reseller which design
best suits your needs. Some suggested fence configurations
are below.
Cattle and horses
10-15 m (33-49') spacing, posts only
15-20 m (49-65') spacing with droppers
Sheep, goats, cattle and horses
10 m (33') spacing, posts only
14
15 m (49') spacing with droppers
Wild animals
7 wire, 10 m (33') spacing with droppers
End assemblies
Angle stay
Suitable for field gate, high-tension strainer.
After firmly setting the footed strainer in the ground, dig in the
stay block just below ground level, at a distance to ensure the
angle stay will be held snugly in position. The stay can be
levered into position with a spade.
