climb over, through or under a multi-wire electric fence. Use a gate
or a specially designed crossing point.
• An electric animal fence shall not be supplied from two separate energizers or from independent fence
circuits of the same energizer.
• For any two separate electric animal fences, each supplied from a separate energizer independently timed,
the distance between the wires of the two electric animal fences shall be at least 2.5m. If this gap is to be
closed, this shall be effected by means of electrically non-conductive material or an isolated metal barrier.
• Barbed wire or razor wire shall not be electrified by an energizer.
• A non-electrified fence incorporating barbed wire or razor wire may be used to support one or more
off-set electrified wires of an electric animal fence. The supporting devices for the electrified wires shall
be constructed so as to ensure that these wires are positioned at a minimum distance of 150 mm from
the vertical plane of the non-electrified wires. The barbed wire and razor wire shall be earthed at regular
intervals.
• Follow the energizer manufacturer's recommendations regarding earthing.
• Do not install an earth (ground) system for your electric fence within 10 m (33 ft) of any power,
telecommunications or other system.
• Use high voltage lead-out cable in buildings to effectively insulate from the earthed structural parts of the
building and where soil could corrode exposed galvanized wire. Do not use household electrical cable.
• Connecting leads that are run underground shall be run in conduit of insulating material or else insulated
high voltage lead-out cable shall be used. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the connecting leads due
to the effects of animal hooves or tractor wheels sinking into the ground.
• Connecting leads shall not be installed in the same conduit as the mains supply wiring, communication
cables or data cables.
• Connecting leads and electric animal fence wires shall not cross above overhead power or communication
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 connecting 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 below.
Minimum clearances from power lines for electric animal fences
Less than or equal to 1 000
Greater than 1 000 and less than or equal to 33 000
Greater than 33 000
• If connecting 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 projection of the outermost conductors of the power line on
the ground surface, for a distance of:
2 m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage not exceeding 1 000 V;
-
15 m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage exceeding 1 000 V.
