1. What is this item?
Electric fencing is a low-current, high-voltage perimeter fencing system that delivers a mild shock to deter trespassers (human or animal). It's made up of electrified wires mounted on insulated posts, connected to a power energizer unit. Often used as a primary or secondary security layer on farm boundaries or around sensitive zones like orchards, nurseries, or livestock enclosures.
2. How is the Quantity Estimated?
• Calculated in running meters of fencing required.
• Number of wire strands (usually 3–5) and post spacing (typically every 3–5 meters) define material quantities.
• Also consider the energizer capacity (depends on fence length) and solar backup if needed.
3. What are the Cost Components?
• Steel or concrete corner/end posts
• Intermediate posts with insulators
• High-tensile electrified wire
• Electric energizer (mains or solar-powered)
• Earth rod system
• Warning signage (as per rules)
• Optional: Solar panel, battery, and fencing controller box
• Labor for installation + testing
4. What are the Going Rates & Per Unit Cost?
• Material + turnkey installation:
o Basic electric fence: ₹150–₹250 per running meter
o With solar backup & full automation: ₹250–₹400/meter
• Energizer systems: ₹15,000–₹60,000 depending on length & power source
👉 Example: For 720 m fencing at ₹275/m =
720 × 275 = ₹1,98,000
(Plus ₹30k–₹50k for energizer setup depending on specs)
Electric fencing = smart deterrent + minimal upkeep.
Best suited for livestock farms, orchards, or wildlife buffers.
