what about when there is no power ?

or the intruders decide to be smart and break the fence

or they use the same cable cutters you used during installation to cut the cables

or they decide to follow the one of the tenants as he drives in

only God offers protection

peace

Cut the wire ALARM SOUNDS

2 wires touch themselves ALARM SOUNDS

Human being or wild animal touchs the line ALARM SOUNDS

If anyone tries to temper with the energizer ALARM SOUNDS

If NEPA takes light, energizer has internal battery that can last up to 48hrs(depending on other factors).

An electric fence is a barrier that uses electric shocks to deter intruders from crossing a boundary. The voltage of the shock will have effects of discomfort on the intruder.

In our country today, Barb Wires are commonly used but despite the fact that we are accustomed and used to them, the following reasons make electric fences a first choice.

THEY OFFER BETTER PROTECTION
An intruder may scale through a Barb wired fence by wearing thick gloves(and he may decide to have few injuries,Afterall,he is in already). But in electric fences, he will receive a very serious shock. And even if he decides to insulate his body,touching the strands will trigger the alarm and viola,the police will be there.

THEY ARE EASY TO INSTALL AND UNINSTALL
Unlike Barb Wires where you are likely to obtain little cuts just because you are doing your job,electric fences are easy to install and uninstall.

OFFERS FLEXIBLE LEVELS OF SECURITY
You can increase the level of security you want by increasing the wire strands,or even the voltage that is flowing through the energizer. Barb Wires doesn't provide any level of security.

THEY BRING OUT THE BEAUTY OF A PROPERTY
If you drive through Lekki, Magodo or Ikoyi(for those in Lagos), one of the reasons why you stare at some buildings in awe is because of how neat their fences are. Electric fences brings out the beauty of your property unlike Barb Wires that starts showing signs of rust.

IDEAL FOR ALL TERRAINS AND REGIONS
Whether rainy or sunny regions,electric fences still offers maximum protection and beauty. Barb Wires may become rusty as the rains persists

The best protection you could give your home today is to install an electric fence.

What if thieves break through the wall, will the electric fence still work?
Re: Reasons Why An Electric Fence Is Better Than Barb Wires by Bigsteveg(m): 4:33pm On Mar 28, 2017
Brilliant reply

electricfencers:
what about
There are provisions for powering the fence using solar energy


As long as there is a contact with the wires, an alarm is triggered


It will trigger an alarm


No fence in the world that I know of,offers protection for this


I agree with you. But you lock your gates and doors at night,don't you?

I am concerned that such an alarm may become tedious especially being constantly set off by animals e.g. cats or birds which may want to perch on it - I am thinking of starting a new house project and an electric fence is one of the options I am considering; however, this kind of false alarm by animals could be a flaw of the system.
Your comments pls.

You addressed the other possibilities but just imagine a situation you don't have the fence in place ab initio!

Your comments pls.

Animals with fur or feathers will not do any harm or shock.

Besides the animal has to be grounded. A cat should be careful of its nose. Grounding is the reason birds sit on power lines with high voltage and dont get shocked.

Hardly does the alarm trigger except by intentional act.

To be honest, most false alarm tigger are caused by either faulty installation or breach by trees. Thats my experience. Also, if you install a small energizer to a large perimeter, you may experince false alarm during rain falls. Rain increases the resistivity of wires by a very small measure. Also installing wires close to each other may cause shorting producing blue lightning-like sparks especially during rain triggering the alarm.

With proper installation, you will forget you have an alarm system.

That will surely attract attention. You may want to intergrate a panic remote.

Per meter Sir.

Say 30x30m plot

Per sq metre is 30 x 30 x 2700= #2,430 000

Per metre is 30 x 4 x 2700= #324,000

It depends on you setup. You may install a solar panel to charge the battery. The power needs is very small.
