Applications Section

Geotek's Common Sense Fence™ and MULE™ post system are the easiest to install, safest, most dependable, longest-lasting and most cost-effective fence you can build. Based on our experience we offer the following suggested configurations for animal control. The designs shown are for general reference and may be modified to meet any specific containment needs.

In an All Hot System, the animal receivesa shock by touching a hot wire which transfers the electricalcharge through the animal, through the earth to the ground rodsand back to the controller which completes the circuit. Thissystem relies on good ground rods and moist, unfrozen earth conditions.

Inthe Hot/Ground System, the animalcan receive a shock the same as the All Hot System and also bytouching a hot (+) and ground (-) wire at the same time to completethe circuit. For best results in all soil conditions, use aHot/Ground System. NOTE:Do not install ground rods within 50 feet of a utility groundrod, buried telephone line, well or buried water line (they maypick up stray voltage).
