ElectroBraid's
Commitment to Safety
The ElectroBraidSystem
is designed to minimize injuries to horses.
Equally
important, you must provide correct installation and proper maintenance.
A collision
with a rigid fence is the most frequent cause of serious horse injury.
ElectroBraid is not rigid, it is resilient, like a boxing ring.
When a horse at full gallop impacts ElectroBraid, it usually
bounces right back, with no damage to horse or fence.
ElectroBraid
is a psychological barrier. Always maintain at least 5,000 volts and
a good grounding system to ensure your horse will receive a significant
electric shock - not just a "bee-sting". The shock from
a UL or CSA approved energizer won't harm your horse, because the
shock is very low amperage for a tiny fraction of a second, but your
horse will always respect ElectroBraid in future.
You can
buy and install an ElectroBraid Fence Minder which will continuously
monitor your fence. It will warn you day or night if it detects a
significant voltage drop. If a horse is in contact with your fence
for more than 3 seconds, your Fence Minder will turn off your
energizer to stop further shocks; and immediately alert you by siren
or by auto-dialling your choice of telephone numbers.
Injuries
with ElectroBraid are very rare. If an incident occurs, please
call 03 8727 6244 so we can discuss the circumstances with you. Hopefully,
we can together take corrective action to prevent any future injury.
