E'Net™ 8/35/6 Electric Netting

A prefabricated fence that has 8 horizontal twines (7 conductive); is 35" tall installed, and has string verticals every 6".

White PVC posts are built into the mesh every 12.5 ft. The result, when energized properly, is a nearly impenetrable mesh to sheep, goats, coyotes and dogs.

The black and white colors provide 24/7 visibility to both humans and animals against light and dark backgrounds.

How does it compare to ElectroNet?

  • Has string verticals every 6" instead of plastic struts every 12". String is more prone to sagging but the closer vertical spacing is better for controlling foxes, lambs and goat kids.
  • Has 8 horizontal twines. (ElectroNet has 9 horizontal twines.)
  • Has 10 times more electrical resistance (380 Ω/1000 ft) so it's less suited for fences more than 1000 ft long. However, using wide-impedance energizers (IntelliShock®, Kube) can help compensate for this difference.
  • Not as easy to handle during removal and installation.

Precautions

This is a pain barrier, not a physical barrier. If animals are scared or starved it will not keep them in. It is best to have animals trained to electric fencing before you turn them out in the net only. The first time you put the animals in the net, you should be available to watch them for a while. That way if one were to get into the fence and get caught, you can turn the power off and get them loose.
Troubleshooting

If the voltage drops below 3000v on the net, you need to turn off the energizer and unhook the net from the energizer. Test just the energizer by itself. If the voltage is 5000v or higher on the energizer the problem is in the net. The most common problem is that the lowest 'hot' strand has been caught around one of the metal spikes on the posts and is shorting it out. The net must be at least 2" away from anything metal (metal posts, existing fences, spikes on support posts).
Warranty

With proper care, netting should last 5-7 years. Replacements will be prorated.

The netting was easy for me (a woman) to handle and allowed me to change sheep grazing paddocks daily. By the end of the summer I could see definite improvement in the quality of forage using the rotational grazing. The sheep adapted easily to the netting.
