THE BENEFITS OF A GALLAGHER FENCE A Gallagher electric fence has many advantages over a conventional fence. It is approximately half the price of a nonelectric fence and the materials are more durable, so the fence will last longer. Gallagher electric fences form a physical and psychological barrier; after contact with the fence animals will avoid it leading to reduced wear and strain on the fence. Because Gallagher products are made from high-quality materials, a properly installed Gallagher electric fence will provide many years of safety and security. ✔ Strength and security. ✔ Always power...

AN ELECTRIC FENCE IS A CLOSED LOOP SYSTEM. The energizer emits power, which moves around via the wire. When an animal comes into contact with the fence it gets a safe, but powerful shock. As a result the animal will see the fence as a barrier and will stay away. After the animal makes contact with the fence the power will be transmitted from the animal and return via the earth rods of the earthing system to the energizer. Proper earthing is very important as the power has to be able to flow back to the energizer in order to keep the loop system closed. If the earthing is not adequate, the closed...

Barbed wire can harm the skin or, even worse, the cow’s udder. High Tensile wire avoids this. A 2-strand system is sufficient for safe, permanent dairy cattle fencing. A 3-strand system is the ideal solution for beef cattle with calves. Unwanted animals such as wild deer and pigs, ferrets and foxes can also be kept...
