The fence energizer must provide a high guard voltage on the charged wires to force the shock current to jump from the wire to the animal’s skin. the fur, hair, or wool of the animal insulates the wire from the animal’s skin. a guard voltage of 5000 volts will jump through about 1/8 inch (3mm) of hair. domestic cattle can usually be managed with a guard voltage of approximately 2000 volts (horses and pigs can be managed with slightly lower guard voltages).

How Electric Fencing Works:
The object of electric fencing is to keep your livestock inside their grazing area by giving them an electric shock when they contact the charged fence wire. properly installed and grounded electric fence is an effective, economical way to fence livestock.
WARNING: Electric fence is a psychological barrier, not a physical barrier. It’s effectiveness depends on proper fence construction. Under certain circumstances livestock can escape the fenced area. do not rely on a portable electric fence as the only means of keeping livestock out of areas that may cause injury to themselves or people. Fence construction will vary depending on location of fence and type of livestock being confined. special attention to constructing fence should be given when fence is located near roadways, railroad tracks, rivers, ponds, etc., to insure animals cannot escape the fenced area, which may cause injury to themselves or people. constructing a temporary, portable fence is not recommended for these locations, a perma- nent physical barrier fence should be used in these locations.

It may seem extreme, but it also seems only fair that an electric fence would be the solution for this Trump-related problem.
A Bellingham, Wash., man is done asking the authorities for help with his missing Donald Trump signs and decided setting up an electric fence around them is the best option.
Ray Gilbride told a radio station that he has “had no luck” with the authorities helping to recover his Donald Trump signs that he says were stolen from his property so he decided to hook up a 1.5-joule electric fence to keep them away. “It’ll light you up a little bit,” Gilbride said. “Especially if you’re standing in wet grass.”
Gilbride told KIRO that he saw a female on his property, via his security camera, trying to steal the electrified sign and she was successful save a few shocks. “This young lady came running through and she grabs the signs, pulls them out and that’s where you can see plain as day, the jolt hit her a little bit,” he said. “She just stopped, just a dead stop, and soon as the pulsing was done, she kinda got her senses and ripped them out and took off running down the street. But it was a pretty funny video.”
While he has faced criticism of his decision, Gilbride said he spoke with the authorities on how he could protect his property and decided the fence was the best method. “We live in a society that’s gone so backwards. First of all, if people stopped being friends with their kids and started being parents, maybe some of it wouldn’t happen,” he told KIRO. “The fact is, stealing is stealing. I’m getting a lot of that criticism, too, people saying it’s just a sign. Why do we prosecute kids for stealing just a candy bar? Situational ethics is wrong. Stealing is stealing. You’ve got to go back to the basics. If it’s not yours don’t touch it.”

We get asked many questions about electric fencing. Some people ask us about fencers, fence chargers, shockers or energizers. So is there a difference in what a fence charger is called/ The answer is no. they all do the same thing. They send current down a fence line to no where. An animal touches the electric fence and the current completes a circuit back to a ground rod. The animal gets a shock and learns not to touch the fence.
Some times Electric Fence Energizers are spelled Energisers... We see this alot in Europe, New Zealand, and Australia. What ever you want to call them is fine with us. Call us to order your next electric fence energizer.
We carry many brands such as trutest, Gallagher, cyclops, speedrite, stafix, patriot, parmak, and others. We will recommend the right energizer for your farm or ranch.

Tips:
• Make sure the solar panel is facing south and not obstructed to receive the most sunlight
• Place energizer so it is protected from the animal
• Use a short piece of wire (about 30”) to connect the five horizontal wires vertically
• In really dry locations, the second and fourth wire can be ground return wires

This is done through good grazing management which leaves adequate residual forage, in turn increasing litter cover on the soil surface and organic matter in the soil. Dominant forage species of pastures and rangelands can also be shifted to a more desirable, drought-resistant state by taking advantage of livestock's selective grazing tendencies.
Producers can use mapping tools such as Google Earth to create a 'living' map of their operation. Through this application it is possible to map fences, paddocks, and watering systems and track grazing moves. Many universities and ranch consulting firms offer free or low-cost training on how to use Google Earth for ranch mapping.
Additional online resources such as SNOTEL data from NRCS's National Water and Climate Center (http://www.wcc.nrcs.usda.gov/snow/) can also be a helpful tool for producers to track moisture in their region.
