An assembly for the control of fence line electrical parameters using a switch and a sensing assembly to detect electrical load on the output

摘要

An electric fence control unit is disclosed wherein the initial shock felt by a subject coming into contact with a conductor that is connected to the output of the control unit is limited. The electric fence control unit includes an input assembly for connection to a power source and an output control assembly containing a controllable switch configured so as to be able to control the output of the control unit wherein the output of the control unit is a series of electrical pulses. An energy limiter network is configured to lower the pulse energy from the usual electric fence energizer output to a lower energy. A sensing assembly relays information to the control assemble regarding the detected electrical load on the output of the control unit. When the electrical load deviates outside a predetermined acceptable range, the controllable switch prevents the lower power electrical pulses from being conducted to the control unit output.
