Typical fence construction
Grounding a fence
All live fence
For most soil types.
The animal receives a shock when it completes a circuit between the fence and the
ground system. The fence above has all live wires and requires conductive soils.
Ground wire return fence
For dry, sandy or frozen ground conditions, where soil conductivity is low.
The animal receives a shock when it completes a circuit between a live wire and a
ground wire. The fence above has both live wires and ground wires (not insulated to the
post). The ground wire is connected back to the grounding system.
