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
effected 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 offset 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.
Go to www.patriotglobal.com for information about grounding.
A distance of at least 33' (10 m) shall be maintained between the unit's ground rod and any other grounding system
connected parts such as the grounding system for the power supply or the telecommunication system.
Connecting leads that are run inside buildings shall be effectively insulated from the grounded structural parts of the
building. This may be achieved by using insulated high voltage cable.
Connecting leads that are run underground shall be run in conduit of insulating material or else insulated high voltage
cable shall be used. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the connecting leads due to the effects of animal hooves
or vehicle wheels sinking into the ground.
