Fencing overview

These animals have characteristics that make them very similar to domestic animals.
For goats, a small problem is caused by horns, so a fencing with three tape strands is the most suitable (20, 40 and 60 cm from the ground), with insulators Rif.9N fitted on posts Rif. 7B. It is also possible to use posts Rif. 12/3 which have the tape passage; doors in any case must be built with Rif. 11 and Rif. 9F, always connected with cable Rif. 59H.
For sheep during the period when they have short fleece, you can certainly use the same type of fencing mentioned above. But when the fleece grows long in late spring, you will need to use our Rif. Net120 solid, modular net that already has posts and electrical connections; it is 108 cm high and 50 m long.
Obviously, in addition to keeping these animals in, the nets also serve to keep out dogs and other unwanted visitors.

Very quick to install, it has low purchase and maintenance costs. The concept it is based on is not only mechanical strength, rated at approximately 400 kg, but the fact that the animal becomes respectful and avoids it, not even touching it after the first experience with the current.

Our system is based on SHOCK-RESISTANT TAPE, but includes energizers, insulators, posts, tensioners and a wide range of accessories in stainless steel, allowing all solutions.

FIRST: Electricity will sting the animal each time it attempts to approach the fencing. Our electric fences, if properly installed, follow this rule. Each application has its own characteristics.

SECOND: The Visual Barrier (created by the tape) represents for the animal a well-visible and wide obstacle, therefore difficult to overcome. Moreover, when it attempts to pass through the electrified fencing, its instinct will remind it: "No, the fencing there is too painful, I cannot pass through, I need to find another exit". To meet this need, at least two or three tape heights are necessary, obviously placed at the right height, namely 15, 30 and 50 cm from the ground!

THIRD: by using nets specifically designed, the electrical deterrent is combined with the physical ability of a specially designed net to contain the animal. A great success!

If we put a finger in a power outlet hole, we don't get a shock! But if we put two? The energizer is designed to transform and pulse, starting from the 220 V of mains current or from the 12 V or 9 V of batteries, multiplying the voltage by 40, or much more in the case of batteries, while reducing the amperage to just a few hundredths of an Ampere.

The system to function consists of two wires, the first, which we will call "ground", is inserted into the ground with a special post that transforms the soil into a gigantic conductor.

The second, the phase, is attached to the tape. When the animal arrives, by touching the tape, because it walks on the ground it connects for a moment the ground with the phase, which is why it gets the shock.
