Electric fence solution

Our electric fence solution is a security protection system that is usually installed along the property boundary of homes or businesses, industries or farms. The property boundary (fence, wall) is the outmost defense against unauthorised access into the property. An electric fence security system primarily consists of bare wire fence structure and an energizer as the essential component. Altitude Group uses the latest technology in the market, to provide a variety of packages that will fit your budget. That makes your security system more reliable and efficient.

Electric fences are designed to create an electrical circuit when touched by a person or animal. A component called a power energizer converts power into a brief high voltage pulse. One terminal of the power energizer releases an electrical pulse along a connected bare wire about once per second. Another terminal is connected to a metal rod implanted in the earth, called a ground or earth rod.

A person or animal touching both the wire and the earth during a pulse will complete an electrical circuit and will conduct the pulse, causing an electric shock. The effects of the shock depend upon the voltage, the energy of the pulse, the degree of contact between the recipient and the fence and ground and the route of the current through the body; it can range from barely noticeable to uncomfortable, painful or even lethal.

Advantages and features
• Dependable – Monitors and protects for 24 hours a day, 365 days of the year. Maintains full operation using built in backup battery, when mains power is unavailable or during a power failure.
• Detect – Provide a higher level of detection capability that detects intrusion attempts. Once detected, the energizer starts the alarm siren and sends alert SMS to residents, owners, security personnel and Security Company monitoring the site.
• Delay – Provides a physical barrier that delays the intrusion time, thus giving more time to respond to the alarm/alert SMS.
• Deter – Delivers a painful electric shock to anyone who touches the fence, hence acts as a psychological barrier to deter intrusion attempts
• Easy installation on existing wall or fence, or as a stand-alone perimeter fence. The electric wires can also serve as a perimeter fence, avoiding the need to erect another conventional fence.
• Easy to operate and low maintenance costs.
• Reduced cost of security personnel on larger properties
