Electric Fencing
Electric fencing contains a different number of strands of electric wires, which carry high-voltage electric pulses.
Your home alarm system should be connected to your electric fencing because the alarm will activate when any interference on the fence. When an electric fence is touched, it delivers a non-lethal but extremely powerful shock.
How effective is an electric fence?
The maximum voltage allowed by law is 10,000 volts.
The average setting on the energiser is between 7,000 and 11,000 volts and this is sufficient to prevent any unwanted person from crossing the fence.
Electric fencing is an efficient, practical, inexpensive way to protect your property.
Never allow anyone else to touch the electric fence. It is not an entertainment game!
What would happen if the electric fence wires are cut?
Criminals will often hit the fence wires with an object to damage the strands of wire.
They will wait to see if there is any response from your security company.
If nothing happens after the alarm stops, they will enter the property.
Why does my electric fence click?
Water or moisture usually causes that snap crackle & pop sound.
Does electric fencing use a lot of electricity?
No, electric fencing doesn’t use a lot of electricity. You will only see a slight increase in your electricity usage.
What happens with power cuts?
All energizers supplied by MF Steel have an internal backup battery.
