There are many different types of electric fence supplies that you may need in order to maintain the working order of your electric fence. For you to know exactly what supplies you need you may need to know what the various supplies are and there purpose, especially if you are new to using electric fencing. The list of electric fencing supplies includes electric fencing energisers (mains), electric fencing energisers (battery), electric fencing kits, electric fencing wire and polywire, electric fencing tape, electric fencing rope, electric fencing netting, electric fencing posts, electric fencing earthing, electric fencing insulated gates and handles, electric fence insulators, electric fencing connectors and strainers, and various electric fencing accessories.
Electric fencing energisers mains are the power portion of electric fences and come in a variety of sizes for working with small paddock pens for dogs to large energisers for larger fencing areas. Electric fencing energisers battery are pretty much like the ones above except they are battery powered and are designed more for strip grazing and mobile fences.
Electric fencing kits come with everything you need all in one kit. Kits are available for horse as well as electric netting for smaller animals such as chickens, which can be powered by mains or batteries.
Electric fencing wire and polywire is the electrified twine that is used in electric fences to protect livestock. This is also known as polytwine.
Electric fencing tape is used to be more visible than rope which can be used for many applications. In most cases, electric tape can be found in green and white according to the electric fence suppliers you visit.
Electric fencing rope also known as polyrope is used for both small paddock fences and long distance runs, most often seen used for horse fences. The electric polyropes are more visible for horses and is less wind resistant than tape.
Electric fence netting is great for smaller animals such as chickens, sheep, or rabbits. The netting will not keep the animals in their pen but will also keep out that sneaky fox.
Electric fencing posts of course are the items that hold the electrified twine, rope, or tape. The posts come in small, medium, and tall in both green and white. If you purchase your electric fencing supplies from a quality company the posts will have a greater resistance to UV rays and a strong footplate that can be used in hard ground or clay.
Electric fence earthing is used for earthing your electric fence while electric fence insulators are used to for attaching tape, rope, and wire with the use of earth leakages. These insulators will hold tape and rope tight in case you have a breakage.
The main thing to remember when you are in need of electric fence supplies is to purchase from a company that sells the best quality products on the market that will withstand weather. If you purchase inferior products you will not be saving yourself a penny if a predator finds a way into your pen and kills your livestock.
