Abstract
Method for the control of an electric fence energizer of any given power, guaranteeing that, during each pulse emitted by the energizer, any human body that might have come into contact with the electric fence since a recent pulse does not run the risk of receiving a dangerous electric shock by reason of the pulse in progress.
Claims35
Method for controlling an electric fence energizer with periodic pulses,
- in which a proportion of a pulse capable of passing through a human body in contact with the said electric fence is higher than a danger threshold (Sm) not to be exceeded in the human body, the said danger threshold being relative to an electrical quantity of the pulse, the said energizer comprising or being associated with:
- means for determining a risk of the presence of a human body in contact with the said electric fence, or the absence of such a risk,
- means for calculating the proportion of a pulse capable of passing through a human body in contact with the fence,
- and means for limiting a pulse,
- characterized in that, during a pulse,
- when the said determination means have determined a risk of the presence of a human body in contact with the fence,
- and when the said calculation means have defined that the proportion of the said pulse capable of passing through the human body is higher than the said danger threshold (Sm),
- the said limiting means limit the said pulse such that the proportion of the said pulse received by the said human body is lower than the said danger threshold (Sm).
