Selection Chart for Electric Fence Energizers
Selecting an energizer can be a difficult process if you are not sure what you need. For your convenience, we have provided the following Selection Chart for Electric Fence Energizers based on the type of fence charger and the animal to be controlled.
Please Note: Fence conditions vary due to weather, weed growth, soil moisture, and type of electric fencing materials used. THIS CHART IS INTENDED AS A GUIDE ONLY!
Ultra low and low impedance (110 Volt Plug In models are the best choice when there is available power – A better value!)
