The Electro Shock Fence System (or electric fence) is a type of security system used especially in agriculture, farms or for security purposes. Basically, there are wires or cables carrying electric current on a fence structure and this current is directed through insulators placed around the fence. The system gives a short-term electric shock when the fence is touched by people, animals or other living things. This shock is usually harmless but has a deterrent effect.
Basic Features of the Electro Shock Fence System:
Electric Current: The fence system gives high voltage but low current electricity. This has a painful effect when touched but is not fatal.
Protection and Security: It is used in farms or agricultural areas to prevent animals from entering certain areas or to prevent people from entering the land without permission for security purposes. It is also preferred to keep wild animals away from the area.
Deterrence: People or animals feel uncomfortable when they touch the electric fence. This discomfort deters them from approaching the fence again.
Energy Source: Fences usually require a power source to operate. This power source can be batteries or solar panels.
Various Areas of Use:
Agriculture and Farms: Used on farms to prevent or direct animals from roaming freely. It can also be used to prevent wild animals from eating or destroying crops.
Security: Electric fences can be preferred to increase security, especially in areas that require high security.
Advantages:
Deterrent Effect: Creates a safe but effective barrier for people and animals.
Low Cost: May be more economical than other security measures.
Long-Term Solution: Electric fences are long-lasting when properly installed.
Disadvantages:
Risk of Misuse: People or animals may accidentally touch the fence, which can cause minor injuries or stress.
Energy Consumption: An energy source is required for the system to operate, and this can create additional costs in some cases.
Electroshock fence systems offer a safe and effective solution when the correct installation and usage conditions are met.
