How does an electric fence work?
An electric fence system comprises an energiser and an insulated fence. The energiser puts
very short pulses of electricity onto the fence line. These pulses have a high voltage, but are
of very short duration (less than 3/10,000ths of a second). However, a shock from an electric
fence pulse is very uncomfortable and animals quickly learn to respect electric fences.
An electric fence is not only a physical barrier, but is also a strong psychological barrier.
