Energizer Selection

Gallagher offer a range of energizers suited to all your animal management requirements. Choose from the advanced technology SmartPower range, or the reliable performance of the PowerPlus range of energizers depending on your individual needs.

Electric fencing systems invariably grow over the years to meet changing conditions or circumstances, so it's a good idea to select an energizer that will power the final system.

The first step is to decide the type of energizer you want to run on your property.

Selecting a Plug-In Energizer

Gallagher SmartPower and PowerPlus energizers are an ideal choice where there is reliable electricity. Gallagher SmartPower MBX energizers combine the advantage of 110v power with a battery backup. These energizers are a practical choice for providing guaranteed animal control and are essential in regions where power is unreliable.

Selecting a Battery or Solar Energizer

All Gallagher Battery Energizers, with the exception of the B11 and B10, can be purchased as solar Energizers. Gallagher PowerPlus S17 Energizer has a built-in solar panel; the rest use a separate solar panel. These solar panels come complete with adjustable mounting brackets and easy connect wiring with full instructions

Energizer Selection is determined either by acreage to be fenced or the length of the fence. Both are estimates as the distance of fence can vary between two farms of the same area, because of the number of paddocks, terrain or conditions. For dry country conditions, Energizers have proven to work effectively over greater distances.

The distance you can successfully fence depends on:

Amount of vegetation touching the hot wires.
Quality of the fence materials, including grounding.
Amount of power on the fence.
Type of animal to be controlled.

As all Gallagher Energizers are safe for even very short fences, using a larger Energizer results in a better stock control and a larger safety factor if the fence or installation is imperfect.
