Electrified fencing is one of the best options for containment of cattle. It has small start up costs and a lower chance to seriously injure your animals if installed correctly. The energizers (what makes the fence electric) vary in price, output, and features, so you’ll want to choose one that fits your needs and budget.

Joe: I think a lot of people get intimidated by electric fences because they think they’re dangerous and they don’t understand the safety components of them. They don’t realize that when a horse touches an electrified fence it only shocks them for a fraction of a second and they never feel anything again. The fence just acts as a deterrent and keeps the animal in a fenced-in area.

As far as a livestock electric fence kit goes, you want to look for one with durable insulators, and an energizer that will be suitable for the number of strands required. It will be noted on the packaging how many strands it can power and also how many acres it will cover. A higher output energizer will cost more, but it’s a good idea to purchase a higher-capacity unit for expansion and to compensate for the loss of energy when grass or vegetation touches the wires.

It’s important to make sure that you have a well-installed grounding system, too. You want the energizer grounding rods to be at least 50 feet away from any other grounding rods that may be used for buildings or telephone lines.
