Electric fence are not connected to the ground in the circuit?

A short answer:An electric fence is connected to the ground only when an animal or a human being touches it to complete a circuit from the fence to the ground.A longer answer:The wires of an electric fence are not connected directly to the ground because, if that was done, the fence would be shorted out and would not be able to do its job!This is how an electric fence is actually hooked-up: the electric fence is connected to one side of a specially designed high voltage source and the return side of that source is connected to the ground.Then, whenever the skin of any animal - or human - touches the wire whilst standing on the ground in bare feet, they get a high-voltage (10,000) DC electric pulse from the electric fence. The shocks are designed to be only enough to make them jump back from the fence, not to "electrocute" them so badly as to cause serious injury or death.


Why does a cow that touches an electric fence experience a mild shock?

When the cow comes into contact with the fence, it becomes an electric ground which sends an electric current into the cow, through the cow, and into the ground. The pain experienced from the shock is due to the current that flows through the cow.


How many volts are in an electric fence?
