maintained in a manner that minimises danger to
persons, animals or their surroundings.
This unit is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical,
sensory or mental capabilities, or lack of
experience and knowledge, unless they have
been given supervision or instruction concerning
use of the unit by a person responsible for their
safety.
Children should be supervised to ensure that
they do not play with the unit.
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 electrode
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.
Connecting leads shall not be installed in the
same conduit as the mains supply wiring,
communication cables or data cables.
Connecting leads and electric animal fence wires
shall not cross above overhead power or
communication lines.
Crossings with overhead power lines shall be
avoided wherever possible. If such a crossing
cannot be avoided it shall be made underneath
the power line and as nearly as possible at right
angles to it.
If connecting leads and electric animal fence
wires are installed near an overhead power line,
the clearances shall not be less than those
shown in the table below.
Minimum clearances from power lines for electric
animal fences
Power line voltage Clearance
≤ 1000 V
10 ‘ (3 m)
> 1000 V to ≤ 33,000 V
13’ (4 m)
> 33,000 V
27’ (8 m)
If connecting leads and electric animal fence
wires are installed near an overhead power line,
their height above the ground shall not exceed
10’ (3 m). This height applies to either side of
the orthogonal projection of the outermost
conductors of the power line on the ground
surface, for a distance of:
• 6’6” (2 m) for power lines operating at a
nominal voltage not exceeding 1000 V.
