Important Informaon
vercal plane of the non-electried wires. The barbed wire and razor wire shall be earthed at regular
intervals.
Follow the energizer manufacturer’s recommendaons regarding earthing.
The energizer earth electrode should penetrate the ground to a depth of at least 1 m (3 ) and not be
within 10 m (33 ) of any power, telecommunicaons or other system.
Use high voltage lead-out cable in buildings to eecvely insulate from the earthed structural parts
of the building and where soil could corrode exposed galvanized wire. Do not use household electrical
cable.
Connecng leads that are run underground shall be run in conduit of insulang material or else insulated
high voltage lead-out cable shall be used. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the connecng leads
due to the eects of animal hooves or tractor wheels sinking into the ground.
Connecng leads shall not be installed in the same conduit as the mains supply wiring, communicaon
cables or data cables.
Connecng leads and electric animal fence wires shall not cross above overhead power or
communicaon lines.
Crossings with overhead power lines shall be avoided wherever possible. If such a crossing cannot be
avoided it shall be made underneath the power line and as nearly as possible at right angles to it.
If connecng leads and electric animal fence wires are installed near an overhead power line, the
clearances shall not be less than those shown in the table following.
Minimum clearances from power lines for electric animal fences
Power line Voltage V Clearance m
Less than or equal to 1 000 3
Greater than 1 000 and less than or equal to 33 000 4
Greater than 33 000 8
If connecng leads and electric animal fence wires are installed near an overhead power line, their height
above the ground shall not exceed 3 m
This height applies either side of the orthogonal projecon of the outermost conductors of the power
line on the ground surface, for a distance of:
- 2 m for power lines operang at a nominal voltage not exceeding 1 000 V;
- 15 m for power lines operang at a nominal voltage exceeding 1 000 V.
Electric animal fences intended for deterring birds, household pet containment or training animals such
as cows need only be supplied from low output energizers to obtain sasfactory and safe performance.
In electric animal fences intended for deterring birds from roosng on buildings, no electric fence wire
shall be connected to the energizer earth electrode. A warning sign shall be ed to every point where
persons may gain ready access to the conductors.
Where an electric animal fence crosses a public pathway, a non-electried gate shall be incorporated
in the electric animal fence at that point or a crossing by means of sles shall be provided. At any such
crossing, the adjacent electried wires shall carry warning signs.
Any part of an electric animal fence that is installed along a public road or pathway shall be idened
by electric fence warning signs (G6020) at regular intervals that
are securely fastened to the fence posts or rmly clamped to the
fence wires.
The size of the warning sign shall be at least 100mm x 200mm.
The background colour of both sides of the warning sign shall
be yellow. The inscripon on the sign shall be black and shall be
either:
- the substance of “CAUTION: Electric Fence” or,
- the symbol shown:
The inscripon shall be indelible, inscribed on both sides of the
warning sign and have a height of at least 25mm.
Ensure that all mains operated, ancillary equipment connected to the electric animal fence circuit
provides a degree of isolaon between the fence circuit and the supply mains equivalent to that provided
by the energizer.
Protecon from the weather shall be provided for the ancillary equipment unless this equipment is
cered by the manufacturer as being suitable for use outdoors, and is of a type with a minimum degree
of protecon IPX4.
