    Well your fields have been in full use now for sometime and I am sure the animals have tested the fencing a few times, tried to munch it and also there has been vegetation growth.

    Here are some things to check and look out for.

    Solar Panels

    Use solar powered electric fencing to safe time and be good to the environment – get the low down on solar power for electric fencing.

    What does a solar panel do?

    Basically a solar panel takes sunlight and converts it into power that can be used by an electric fencing energiser.  It does not power the energiser directly – the solar panel feeds
