★ ★ ★ ★ ★ (15) Read reviews »

An effective electrified fence that keeps in sheep, goats, guard dogs and cattle while keeping out deer, coyotes and bear.

How it differs from PermaNet®:

  • An extra “live” horizontal strand.
  • Lowest live strand is only 4" above the soil (vs 6" for PermaNet).
  • Verticals every 12" (vs 6").
  • Strutted verticals instead of string. Less likely to sag between posts.

How it's similar to PermaNet®:
The same in all other respects (post size, post spacing, height and conductivity).

* Pos/Neg (PN) fences are recommended where the soil is very dry and/or the animals do not ground well. Two clips are used at each end. One is hooked to the energizer, the second should be connected to a ground rod.

Benefits
Sturdier than other nets with regular posts. Still easy to move if needed. Secure for a wide range of animals. Visible for animals against all back grounds. End posts act as built in gates. DS posts are more stable in soft soils.

Cost
#204500 - $1.44 per ft (100' roll with single spike posts)
#204501 - $2.34 per ft (50' roll with single spike posts)
#204515 - $1.64 per ft (100' Positive/Negative roll with single spike posts)
#204510 - $1.55 per ft (100' roll with double spike posts)

Installation
The same “unroll and then unfold” process applies to all electrified nets. Minimal strength or skill needed (and no tools). Extra supports such as FiberTuff™ step-in posts are useful at corners, curves and ends. You will need a fence energizer to electrify the net.

Tip: When using Pos/Neg fencing, a PowerLink (see Accessories above) is recommended to attach the negative lead to the ground rod.

Note: Weeds must be controlled for ElectroFence to remain effective. Either move and mow as needed during the growing season, or spray herbicide (see photos above) along the bottom strand of the net. If you can’t do this, ElectroFence may not be the right net for you.

See PDFs and videos above for additional installation instructions.

Precautions
Electric fence is a pain barrier, not a physical barrier. A common mistake is not electrifying it. Animals may escape or become entangled (and may die). On a % basis, entanglement is very rare, but it can and does occur. If animals are scared or starved it will not keep them in. 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.

Warning! Due to risk of fire, do NOT use continuous output energizers with electric netting or electro-plastic conductors such as rope, twine or tape. Use only with a low or wide impedance intermittent pulse energizer. (Fi-Shock™ brand energizers which are sold as low impedance, continuous current output should NOT be used with electric netting.) All energizers sold on Premier’s website use an intermittent pulse and are suitable for use with electric netting.

Dry conditions and wintertime usage may reduce the effectiveness of electric fencing. Ice and heavy snow can flatten netting and thereby damage it.

Dry or frozen ground may cause post spikes to bend or break if inserted with force. Pilot holes may be needed. We recommend using drivable or single spike posts in hard soils. Double spike posts provide more stability when the ground is soft.

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 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.

Good quality, and versatile fence. I have many of your fences for goats, bees, and chickens and this is my favorite one.
It is pretty good with the goats, although if they want to get out, they can clear it in one running leap no problem.(These are not bucks in rut or does weaning their babies...I have had no luck with those with any moveable fencing. I have had my escape artists take an 8000 volt no problem as they leave a fence behind. I have also had my big doe (~190 lb) uproot and drag most of a fence behind her getting zapped the whole way, until she could get untangled and finish trampling the fence.)

Got the 11/48/12 double spike. Works great. Able to keep very aggressive buck in for the first time, when breeding season is near. Hard ground is a problem, so glad I got double spike. Will buy more.

Much nicer than the E'Stop netting and a lot less sagging. This is the way to go! wish I could trade in my E'Stop netting for this stuff!

We bought the double spike 100' rool. We are absolute sheep newbies (I've had horses for 15 years), so had no idea what to expect at all. We haven't picked up our sheep yet, but have started setting up their fencing and housing. The fence itself looks like it will be very long-wearing.

The most "interesting" part is going to be creating a fence for this, as there is no obvious way to do so. But we'll figure it out.
