Definition of special terms
Unit/Charger/Energizer
intended to periodically deliver voltage impulses
to a fence connected to it.
Fence
– A barrier for animals or for the purpose
of security, comprising one or more conductors
such as metal wires, rods or rails.
Electric fence
– A barrier which includes one or
more electric conductors, insulated from
ground, to which electric pulses are applied by
a unit.
Ground electrode
– Metal structure that is
driven into the soil near a unit and connected
electrically to the Fence ground terminal of the
unit, and that is independent of other
grounding arrangements.
Connecting lead
– An electric conductor, used
to connect the unit to the electric fence or the
ground electrode.
Requirements for electric animal fences
Electric animal fences and their ancillary
equipment shall be installed, operated and
maintained in a manner that minimises danger
to persons, animals or their surroundings.
– An appliance that is
Warning!
Avoid contacting electric fence
wires especially with the head, neck or
torso. Do not climb over, through or under a
multi-wire electric fence. Use a gate or a
specially designed crossing point.
This unit is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the unit by a person responsible for their
safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the unit.
Electric animal fence constructions that are
likely to lead to the entanglement of animals or
persons shall be avoided.
An electric animal fence shall not be supplied
from two separate units or from independent
fence circuits of the same unit.
For any two separate electric animal fences,
each supplied from a separate unit
independently timed, the distance between the
wires of the two electric animal fences shall be
at least 8' (2.5 m). If this gap is to be closed,
this shall be affected by means of electrically
non-conductive material or an isolated metal
barrier.
Barbed wire or razor wire shall not be electrified
by a unit.
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 6" (150 mm) from the
vertical plane of the non-electrified wires. The
barbed wire and razor wire shall be grounded
at regular intervals.
