Energizer Sizing Recommendation
We Recommend the 1 Joule Per Mile Rule
For practical farm applications, we recommend approximately 1 output joule for every mile of energized wire.
When calculating your fence requirement, count every energized strand, not just the perimeter distance.
For example:
3-mile fence × 4 energized wires = 12 miles of energized wire
Vegetation pressure, fence leakage, connections, soil conditions, and livestock type can increase the amount of energizer capacity needed.
Grounding Recommendation
We Recommend 3' of Grounding Per 1 Output Joule
Proper grounding is essential for getting maximum performance from a high-powered energizer such as the MBS1800i.
Use the energizer's rated output joules to calculate your starting ground system requirement:
Output Joules × 3' = Recommended Total Grounding
Dry, sandy, or rocky soils may require additional grounding to maintain optimum fence performance.
Common Applications
Large rotational grazing systems
High-tensile electric fencing
