SV: [basicstamps] high voltage

I've worked with electic fences on my uncle's farm, and switching off
the input voltage is NOT a good solution, particularly if the unit
supplies several sections of fence...
(We don't want cattle running wild, do we)

Worst case?
Just mount a small DC motor that lifts a latch using a 'non-conductive'
actuator.
(Plastic rods or something)

Hook red and green flags onto it and you also have a visible
'safe'/'Danger' signal out in the field...

Emne: RE: [noparse][[/noparse]basicstamps] high voltage


There are several fellas that appear at hamfests that sell used ones.
Generally controlled by 28 VDC. The Kennehoochie Hamfest is Saturday.
I will get the fella's name.

It would be easier to use a relay to control the 110 VAC into the
electric fence charger.

Hi group!

I need to control, with my BS2, a high voltage electric fence as you
have on farms to keep animals to cross fields, anyone know where I can
find high voltage relays ( 10,000 volts).

Rene
