Game Fencing
Power Fencing has been used widely throughout the world for game animals, deer,
bears, elk and elephant. Power Fences are a psychological barrier and should not
be considered a complete physical barrier fence. With any Power Fence occasional
animal penetra on may occur (as with any other type of fence). It is important for
game fencing to have power on the fence the same day as the fence is constructed.
Animals inves ga ng the new obstruc on will be shocked and will relate the shock
to the new obstruc on. If no power is on the fence and animals learn to walk
through the fencing system with no electric shock, this causes major problems later
on since they will not relate the electric shock to the fence a er the power is turned
on. A Power Fence is not recommended for animals under hun ng pressure. For
specifi c ques ons on game fencing contact your Gallagher dealer.
Bird Deterrent
Where the energizer is used to supply a system of conductors used for deterring
birds from roos ng on buildings, no conductor should be connected to earth. A
switch should be installed to provide means of isola ng the energizer from all poles
of the supply and clear warning signs should be fi ed at every point where persons
may have ready access to the conductors. The no ce should bear the words "LIVE
WIRES" in block le ers not less than 13mm (½" high). The le ers should be red on a
white background. Each no ce should be at least 62mm x 50mm (2½" x 2").
HANDY HINT
Lightning strikes can
damage energizers.
Damage can be
minimised by
disconnec ng the
energizer from the fence
line and unplugging it
from the power supply
during electrical storms.
The Gallagher Adjustable Lightning Diverter G6480 with a 'Crow's foot' earth
confi gura on is recommended to minimise energizer damage.
Lightning is transferred to the earth system rather than through the energizer,
thereby reducing the likelihood of energizer damage.
