What is a Solar Fencing System?

WireWalls™ solar power fencing is the modern day’s alternative to the conventional type of
perimeter protection. These are active fences and punish the unwelcome intruder the moment
they touches the fence or try to tamper the fence. The conventional types of fences are only
passive fences and cannot resist the intruder if they try to forcibly intrude into the protected area.
The Solar fencing gives a SHARP, SHORT, PAINFUL, but Regulated, SAFE Electric SHOCK
and creates psychological fear. Against any tampering the alarm incorporated in the system gets
activated and alerts the inmates of the protected area, which facilitates them to counter the
unwelcome intruders.

The solar fencing is scientific fence and works on Solar Energy with backup facility to run
uninterruptedly during the nights as well as cloudy days. The whole system can be derived into
two segments, one is the Central Control Unit with Fencer-300™/ Fencer-600™/ Fencer-900™
unit and the other one is the Fence.

The solar photovoltaic module converts the sunshine into electrical energy and sends them to the
Fencer-300™/ Fencer-600™/ Fencer-900™ unit through a backup battery. The Fencer-300™/
Fencer-600™/ Fencer-900™ unit takes 12V supply as input and energizes the same into high
volt pulses in the range of about 8.5KV to 9.9KV. These pulses will travel through the fencing
wires at regular interval of 1.3 second and the duration of each pulse will be 0.03 seconds.

The fence part is a scientific type of layout in which multi strands at 100MM gap will run
through the insulators, which are pre-welded and pre-fabricated to galvanized MS poles. The
height of the fence above the ground/compound wall will be as per the requirement of site
conditions. The posts are arranged at 3 meters gap with perfect supporting to the corner poles.
Proper earthing in the mode of Super-Earth-Kit™ which is a composite mixture of different
minerals helps the fence to have a perfect earthing system as solar fencing requires good earthing
for effective working.

There is a provision for restricting the intrusion through the gate as well as over the gate. The
spring loaded barricades arranged to the gate will electrify the gate and activates the alarm when
somebody tries to open the gate forcibly. Pulses travels through the springs arranged on the gate
and give the shock to the trespassers/intruder.

How a Solar Fencing Works?


When properly designed and installed, solar power fencing is the least expensive, safest, and
most secure method for securing properties and lives when compared to walls, other types of
fences, human guards, and watchdogs. The fence does NOT sleep. The fence CANNOT be
bribed. The fence does NOT require food or water. Well-designed solar power fencing has more
deterrence value than a guard with a sawed off shotgun or a snarling pit bull.

If you have security guards, you can pay for and justify the fence by reducing at least half of
your guard force and still maintain a much higher security level. The remaining guards can
respond quickly before an intruder even enters onto the property. You will find that a solar
electric fence is the best security investment that you have ever made.
Solar power fencing is designed to keep out predators, thieves, trespassers, vandals and disease.
If you also employ security guards, they will complement the security that is provided by a well-
designed high voltage solar electric fence.

A solar power fencing design to keep livestock penned in (or out) is no different. A simple wire
or tape around the pasture or livestock enclosure is only done for a temporary enclosure. A more
permanent enclosure requires the same design considerations as you would for security. Security
for your expensive livestock should be a prime consideration.

Solar power fencing is designed to protect property, livestock, production, manufacturing, and
lives. Every situation is different, but there are also some considerations that are the same, no
matter who, what, or where. The components of the system shall be installed and mounted inside
a metallic enclosure and very near to the fence and LOCKED out of reach from unauthorized
people.

We recommend that you check your fence at least once a week. Plant foliage or branches or
fronds lying across the fence wire might not reduce the voltage on the meter when dry, but
foliage becomes a conductor when wet and might easily short out your system completely
reducing the fence voltage to almost zero when soaked from rain.

Technical:
Solar Photovoltaic Module converts sun energy into electricity and stores in a 12V battery. From
battery 12V supply flows to the WireWalls™ Energizer unit, this is the heart of the power
fencing system. The WireWalls™ Energizer unit energizes the 12V supply in to very high
voltage i.e., about 9900V on load, and sends through the typically constructed fence in pulse rate.
Duration of each pulse is 0.03 seconds at the interval of 1.3 seconds each. These pulses are very
sharp and protect your area by giving the intruder a SHORT, SHARP, PAINFUL, but Regulated,
SAFE Electric SHOCK that will be registered in the memory and creates psychological fear.

Advantages of Solar Fencing


• The system will be a Non-Lethal solar powered perimeter security system.
• The system will operate as a Psychological and Physical Barrier.
• The system will alert any kind of intrusion through an audio alarm system that can be in
the vicinity of more than 500 meters, within a second.
• The solar power fencing system will produce a high voltage at an energy output of 2.5
Joules, which will act as an active deterrent, a physical barrier and a reliable detection
system.
• The solar power fencing system produces a high voltage in the range of 8.0 KV to 9.9 KV
(Non-Load) to DETER, DETECT and DENY physical intrusion by giving the intruder a
SHORT, SHARP, PAINFUL, but Regulated, SAFE Electric SHOCK.
• The Energizer (Fencer-300™/ Fencer-600™/ Fencer-900™) will be able to check the
fence around 50 to 52 times a minute and the instant the pulsated wires are cut or
tampered, a built-in-alarm will immediately alert the monitoring personnel and the
security authorities, along with the zone of attempted break-in (optional).
• External alarm will be activated within a second. As a precautionary means an internal
alarm is provided as a substitute in case of failure of external alarm.
• The Lead-Acid-Battery (Reputed Make) along with electronic system will be concealed
in a metal box. A live light fixed on the fence will indicate the activeness of the fencing
system.
• Our own Solar Photovoltaic Module will be supplied, which can generate the required
power to charge the Lead-Acid-Battery. In general the battery backup provided will be
for 120 hours.
• In the event of complete darkness or solar power input failure, auxiliary supply of 240V-
AC will be provided (Optional).

Safety Regulations
All Energizers must conform to Local, National & International standard requirements.
• Do not use barbed wire on solar power fencing as physical entanglement could occur.
• Do not use more than one energizer to electrify any one fence line at a time.
• Faulty solar fencing can produce a spark, so keep combustible materials away.
• In fire prone areas, power the fencing from the reduced power terminal or turn the
energizer off on high risk days.
• All wires should be at least 5.5Mtrs. above the ground when crossing public places /
roads / highways.
• Try to avoid any fencing line passing under or parallel to power lines. Any crossing
should be made at right angles. Where they are near overhead power lines, do not allow
fence wires higher than 2Mtrs. above the ground.
• Do not attach solar power fencing wires to any AC mains.
• Interference on telecom lines is the responsibility of the landowner and is prohibited. Do
not run electrified wires under telephone/broadband wires or parallel to underground
telephone/broadband cables for any distance.
• Keep electrified fencing wires well away from radio aerials.
• Always seek local body advice before constructing any solar fencing nearby transmission
/ grid stations and bulk oil / chemical stock yards etc…
• Solar power fencing is safe if it can be let go – entanglement can be dangerous.
• The energizer delivers a high voltage, short duration pulse approximately once per second
which causes a violent reaction of the nervous system of a non-permanent nature. The
reaction can cause injury if it is unexpected. Use solar power fencing warning signs on
the fence where the public have access.
• Do not touch the live fence with your head or mouth, or become entangled.
Childproofing for solar power fencing is very important. A young child may get
confuse/disoriented when touching or climbing the fence, and not be able to physically get away
from the fence. Young children should be kept away from solar fencing.
Warning Signs
Solar power fencing bordering public thoroughfares are required to have a warning sign boards
at least every 100 meters.

Bird Deterrent
A live earth system is recommended for deterring birds from roosting on buildings. A switch
should be installed to provide means of isolating the energizer from all poles of the supply and
clear warning signs should be fitted at every point where people may have ready access to the
conductors.

Radio & Telephone Interference


WireWalls™ energizers comply with usual telecom and international standards and safety
regulations. However, problems can arise for a number of reasons and can be difficult to
eliminate in areas with poor radio reception. To avoid radio interference:
• The energizer earth must be highly conductive.
• The energizer must be well away from any mains power supply earth and neither should
be connected to water pipes.
• Do not allow an energizer earth wire to touch a building which can act as a broadcast
aerial. Use lead-out/double insulated cable to insulate the earth wire.
• Earth the offending radio and improve its aerial. Try to keep both as far away from the
energizer and fence lines as possible.
• The Solar P.V module, battery power supplies plugs and sockets for the energizer and
radio must be in good condition with no loose connection.
• Do not have solar power fencing wires running for any distance parallel to telephone
wires or power lines. This particularly applies if the solar power fencing wire is carrying
high current, such as a lead-out wire to a large fencing system.
• Make sure all joints on the fence and earth wires are “figure eight” or “reef knots” and
that all other connections are joint clamped securely so there is no sparking. Re-tighten
clamps every summer.
• Ensure all cut-out switches are in good condition with no loose connections.
• Use only top quality insulators. Poor quality insulators are short lived and cause problems
that are difficult to trace. Sparking inside these also causes radio interference.
• Under gateways, use lead-out/double insulated cable threaded through plastic piping for
physical protection, avoiding sharp objects the piping and cable must be flexible to allow
for strainer post movement.
• Spray grass along fence lines closest to the radio with desiccant.
• To find leaks, shorts, faulty joints, broken wires, and faulty insulators, walk the fence
lines with a transistor radio turned off the station and on high volume. It will click when a
fault is close.
If you have done all the above and there is still a problem, do the following test:
Operate the energizer without the earth or fence connected. If the interference stops then the fault
is in the fence line or earth. If it is still there then the fault is in the energizer or in the
battery/solar penal power supply connections.
