A Modern, Humane, and Effective Security Solution
Solar fencing is a modern security solution that provides an effective and humane barrier to protect properties from intruders and animals. It works by delivering a short, sharp, but safe electric shock to any trespasser that comes into contact with the fence wires. Powered entirely by solar energy, it is a self-sufficient and highly reliable system that operates 24/7, making it an ideal choice for a wide range of security needs.
The versatility of solar fencing makes it an ideal security solution for numerous sectors. In agriculture, it is an invaluable tool for farmers, creating a robust barrier that protects valuable crops from being damaged by wild animals like elephants, boars, and deer, thereby preventing significant financial losses. For wildlife conservation, solar fences are used to create safe corridors for animals, manage wildlife within national parks and sanctuaries, and prevent human-animal conflict by keeping wildlife away from residential areas. In the industrial and high-security sectors, solar fencing provides a formidable first line of defence for factories, warehouses, military installations, and critical infrastructure, deterring theft, vandalism, and unauthorized access with a reliable, round-the-clock surveillance system that is independent of the main power grid.
Choosing a solar-powered electric fence comes with a multitude of advantages. The primary benefit is its cost-effectiveness; as it runs on free solar energy, there are no recurring electricity bills, and the initial investment is often recovered quickly through prevented losses and low operational costs. The system is highly reliable and works 24/7, storing energy in its battery to remain fully functional at night and during cloudy days, ensuring continuous protection. It is also an eco-friendly solution with a zero carbon footprint. Most importantly, it is a safe and humane deterrent. The electric shock is non-lethal and creates a psychological fear rather than physical harm, effectively teaching animals and intruders to stay away without causing injury.
The first step is a thorough assessment of the area to be fenced. Our experts analyze the terrain, soil conditions, and the specific security threats (e.g., type of animal or intruder) to design a customized fencing layout. This includes determining the ideal placement for the fence posts, the number of wire strands required, and the best location for the solar energizer unit to receive maximum sunlight.
Once the layout is finalized, high-quality, sturdy posts (either metal or concrete) are installed at regular intervals. Insulators are then fitted onto these posts to prevent the electric current from grounding. High-tensile wires are then carefully strung between the posts through the insulators, with the number and height of the wires customized based on the security requirement.
The solar energizer, which is the heart of the system, is installed along with the solar panel and battery. The solar panel is mounted in a position that ensures it receives direct sunlight for most of the day. The energizer is connected to the solar panel, the battery, and the fence wires. An earthing system is also installed, which is crucial for delivering an effective shock.
After the complete installation, the system is thoroughly tested. We use a digital voltmeter to check the voltage across all sections of the fence to ensure it meets the required levels. We also test the alarm systems (if included) and provide a complete demonstration to the client on how the system operates and how to perform basic maintenance, ensuring they are fully confident in their new security solution.
