This directive for dairy farmers points out that electric fences present unappreciated hazards and have been the cause of fatal accidents. Contents: rules for inspection and approval (distances to be maintained from high- or low-voltage overhead electric lines, prohibition of attachment of electric fence supply lines to power poles); pulse generators (installation, earthing, connections, lightning protection); installation of pulse generators inside buildings; stringing of fences (choice of wire, insulators, tensioners, posts, special fences, insulating handles for gates, warning signs); risks associated with battery-powered pulse generators. |
