2. HIGH VOLTAGE CABLE
This cable is multi‑purpose. It is used, among other things, to connect the energiser to
the grounding rod or connecting several rods together. In addition, high‑voltage cables
are used to pass electricity close to the ground or underground.
NOTICE
Only 1‑core (high‑voltage suitable) cables may be used and never commercially
available 3‑core household cables (NYM cables). To prevent damage from stones,
rodents, etc, you can pass the cable through a garden hose or similar.
3. GROUNDING ROD / EARTHING
The basic requirement for a functional electric fence, optimal fence voltage and fence
security is good grounding. The ideal distance between grounding rods is 3 m and they
should be pushed as deep as possible into the ground. In accordance to VDE, fence and
house grounding must be at least 10m apart.
Info
Ground rods must be rust‑resistant. In dry conditions, watering the grounding
rods to improve the grounding and to have sufficient voltage at the fence often
helps. As standard, 1‑1.5m long rods are used.
4. FENCE CONNECTION CABLE
This cable is used to connect the energiser to the electric fence. A high voltage insulated
cable is recommended for this purpose. The connection can be made directly from the
energiser to the fence, but also via an intermediate lightning protection device or a
fence switch.
Info
Depending on the type of the conductor material, there are prefabricated cables
with eyelets or connectors at the ends for quick and easy installation.
5. CONNECTION CABLE
Connection cables are used to carry voltage to all conductor rows of the electric fence
system. This allows two or three rows to be connected together and distribute the
current.
Info
Depending on the length of the fence, it is recommended to install connecting
cables every 200 ‑ 400m.
6. WARNING SIGNS
The signposting of electric fences is mandatory in public areas. The signs must be
clearly visible and attached to the fence approx. every 50 ‑ 100 m. Check with your local
authority the distance required in your area.
Info
Warning signs are available in different languages.
