on the ground surface, for a distance of:

15 m for power lines operating 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 satisfactory and safe performance.
• In electric animal fences intended for deterring birds from roosting on buildings, no electric fence wire
shall be connected to an earth stake. A warning sign shall be fitted to every point where persons may gain
ready access to the conductors.
• Where an electric animal fence crosses a public pathway, a non-electrified gate shall be incorporated
in the electric animal fence at that point or a crossing by means of stiles shall be provided. At any such
crossing, the adjacent electrified wires shall carry warning signs.
• Any part of an electric animal fence that is installed along a public road or pathway shall be identified by
electric fence warning signs (G6020) at regular intervals that are securely fastened to the fence posts or
firmly 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 inscription on the sign shall be black and shall be either:
-the substance of "CAUTION: Electric Fence" or,
-the symbol shown:
• The inscription 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 isolation between the fence circuit and the supply mains equivalent to that provided
by the energizer.
• Protection from the weather shall be provided for the ancillary equipment unless this equipment is
certified by the manufacturer as being suitable for use outdoors, and is of a type with a minimum degree
of protection IPX4.
This energizer complies with international safety regulations and is manufactured to international standards.
