Part 2 – Electric plus/minus fence on a (garden) barrier or wall
Step 1 – Required materials
To install a plus/minus fence you need 2 insulated mounting wires.
1 m insulated (blue) connection cable is included in the basic kit, but this will often prove to
be too short in common situations of a plus/minus fence.
You can order the special cable required for this on our gallagher.eu webshop
(item no. 065028) Gallagher ground cable 1.6 mm on a roll of 10 m.
Note,
Step 5 in this step-by-step plan is based on the use of the above Gallagher ground cable which is
n’t
supplied as standard with the kit.
Step 2 – Placing the ring insulators on a fence or wall
For a wooden fence/surface
,
The supplied ring insulators (C) are provided with self-cutting threads for, among other things, wood, which
makes them relatively easy to drill into (soft) wood without pre-drilling.
If the wood is from a hard variety (tropical hardwood), we recommend pre-drilling the holes in the fence. Use a
2.5 mm wood drill and drill approximately 3 metres from holes of approximately 20 mm deep.
For a stone or concrete fence/surface,
The supplied ring insulators (C) are also suitable for a stone or concrete surface. For this application you must
place the ring insulators in a
’universal plug 6x30’ (not included). For this application you need to pre-drill the
required holes with a 6 mm rock or concrete drill, approximately 30 mm deep.
Then screw in the ring insulators (C) and place the first and the last insulator as shown in (CA) and all in
between insulators shown in (CB) above.
Tip:
Not enough insulators? The ring insulators can also be ordered separately on gallagher.eu, for example
(item no.004089) Screw insulator BS wood small, 25 pieces.
