The copper-clad ground rod promotes the proper grounding of electric horse fence chargers. If your electric fence charger isn’t grounded properly, your electric fence won’t help you maintain a secure perimeter for your horses. The ground rod clamp needed to connect your electrical burial wire to the ground rod is included.

Installation: Ground rods should be placed at least twenty-five (25) feet from your energizer and near the fence line, but at least fifty feet away from any underground piping, cable, or other grounding systems. A ground rod closer than 50 feet from a waterline (even if the waterline is plastic) may cause signal interference in your home computer, phone, radio, or TV. Ground rods closer than 25’ from the energizer may damage the energizer during electrical storms.

Note: We recommend a minimum of three copper-clad ground rods spaced at least ten (10) feet apart in a triangular configuration and for added effectiveness a fourth ground rod at the furthest point away from the initial three rods.
