Product Guide - Energisers

Which electric fencing energiser do you need?

• Look at power choices - mains, battery or battery/solar
• Consider how much power output you need and the distance of the fencing
• Which type of fencing are you putting up?

In brief the job of the Energiser is to convert power (from the mains, battery or light (solar)) to pulses and push them down the electric fence line. The pulses are of high voltage and low amperage, which makes them, like static electricity, safe but an unpleasant experience when touched. We have a whole range of energisers to power electric fences. The difference between Energisers is in their pushing power and energy, i.e. how far can they push the pulse and at the same time maintain their voltage. See the table below for some or our energisers.

1.     Power Choices:

• Mains - runs on ordinary mains power (requires lead out cable)
• Battery - runs off 12v battery
• Solar/Battery- integral solar panel powering 12v battery
• Solar Assist Compatible Energisers - separate solar panel & stand feeding 12v battery.

2.     A Rough Guide to determine which is the right energiser for the appropriate electric fence by meterage - length of fence x the number of lines of tape/rope/wire) x 1.5 (add more for planned future expansion). Check the max single line distance below.

3.     A stronger Energiser should always be used to contain or exclude animals which are carnivorous (e.g. Fox) or are well insulated (e.g. Sheep, Badgers & Rabbits). Similarly, it is advisable to choose a stronger Energiser for powering Electric Netting as the netting live lines will always touch vegetation, which causes earthing and power loss. We have devised all our kits so they will easily cope with the number of lines or nets required and also allows for future expansion.

Our aim is to offer a VALUE FOR MONEY solution by supplying good quality and reliable products at the right price - we are happy to discuss your requirements: email or call: 01620 860058.

We also supply solar panels and stands - these are compatible with various energisers and work as solar assist.

NOTE: All our Energisers have a two-year warranty.
