Electric fences are designed to create an electrical circuit when touched by a person or animal.
A component called a power energizer converts power into a brief high voltage pulse. One terminal of the power energizer releases an electrical pulse along a connected bare wire about once per second.
Another terminal is connected to a metal rod implanted in the earth, called a ground or earth rod.
A person or animal touching both the wire and the earth during a pulse will complete an electrical circuit and will conduct the pulse, causing an electric shock.
The effects of the shock depend upon the voltage, the energy of the pulse, the degree of contact between the recipient and the fence and ground and the route of the current through the body; it can range from barely noticeable to uncomfortable, painful or even lethal.

The strainer post are used at the beginning and end of the fence. They hold the strain of the fence wires and support any gate
Certified wooden posts (250 cm). It is a unique solution for permanent fences. Strainer post stakes are completely self-insulating and do not require any isolators.
They are also extremely durable. Strainer post is only available from Gallagher and comes with a 10 year guarantee! Wooden Support posts with a height of 2.50 m are ideally suited as pasture fence post.

The special feature of this type of Support wood is its self-insulating property, which means that insulators can be dispensed. In addition, this post is characterized by its long durability.
We have Strainer post fences at various locations that have been in operation for more than 30 years.
Strainer post is a 100% natural product without environmentally harmful impregnating agents. A special reforestation plan prevents nature from being harmed. The post adapts perfectly to the landscape.
The Strainer posts are guaranteed for 10 years. As already said, you do not need insulators. Instead you fix the wire to the post with the help of fastening pins. Choose the quality post (10 x 10 x 250 cm) from the professional!
- 250 x 10 x 10cm
- Self insulated wooden posts for permanent fencing
- Maintenance free and no insulators required
- Long life – up to 30 years
Smooth steel wire is the material most often used for electric fences, ranging from a fine thin wire used as a single line to thicker, high-tensile (HT) wire. Less often, woven wire or barbed wire fences can be electrified, though such practices create a more hazardous fence, particularly if a person or animal becomes caught by the fencing material (electrified barbed wire is unlawful in some areas).
Synthetic webbing and rope-like fencing materials woven with fine conducting wires (usually of stainless steel) have become available over the last 15 to 20 years, and are particularly useful for areas requiring additional visibility or as temporary fencing.
The electrified fence itself must be kept insulated from the earth and from any materials that will conduct electricity and ignite or short out the fence.
Fencing must therefore avoid vegetation, and cannot be attached directly to wood or metal posts. Typically, wooden or metal posts are driven into the ground and plastic or porcelain insulators are attached to them, or plastic posts are used. The conducting material is then attached to the posts.
