Electric fences for large horses
Electric fencing can be ideal for horses for many reasons. Safety for the horse, as well as low cost and ease of installation, make electric fencing one of the best options for equine containment. Horses are easy to control with electric fencing. They are intelligent animals and quickly learn to respect an electric fence.
Horses tend to use traditional fences as scratching posts, causing the fence to weaken or sag over time (animal pressure). They may also fall into the habit of “cribbing” or chewing fences.
An electric fence prevents both of these behaviors, protecting the horse from harm and prolonging the life of the fence.

- How to design your electric fence?
1) We recommend posts extend at least 5 feet above ground, spaced about 12 feet apart on level ground.
2) Four equally spaced strands of polytape or ployrope provide optimum visibility and safety. Mares and geldings may require only three strands, while stallions and colts may need up to five strands.
3) To contain foals, be sure to have a strand of electrified poly tape/rope close to its nose level.
4) To add electric fencing to an existing fence such as wood, place 1 strand of 2 inch polytape across the top to deter horses from leaning on the wooden boards.
