Electric Fence for Horses.
A electric fence for horses can be the right solution thanks to its practicality and economy.
Over time, more and more breeders around the world are using the electric fence as a tool for keeping their animals safe.
It is a tool that is increasingly popular as it can be easily adapted to any need. It can be built for:
- • long or short fences,
- • livestock or wild animals,
- • land with 220 V electric current or without current using a 12 V battery device.
Among the livestock animals for which the electric fence is increasingly used, horses are certainly included.
Electric Fence for Horses: what materials to use?
Building an electric fence for horses requires some small differences compared to other animals, especially in terms of materials to use.
For horses, a fence with higher posts needs to be set up, which means that the height of the wire or tape lines must also be different from the standards used for other animals.
The recommended heights for horses are:
- • first line at 85 cm from the ground
- • second line at 140 cm from the ground
Therefore, considering the depth at which the post must be inserted into the ground, posts about 2 meters long should be used.
