The RAMM ground rod kit comes with everything needed to connect your electric horse fencing system. It includes three 5′ ground rods, three clamps, and one ½” x 58” roll of 12.5-gauge soft zinc aluminum burial wire.

A properly installed grounding bed is the key to success with electric fencing systems. In most cases, if an electric fencing system is not functioning properly, the grounding bed is the cause. It is possible that additional ground rods are needed, or it may need to be watered, as the ground rods seek moisture from the ground. In certain demographics with dry climates, ensuring that the ground bed is damp can be the solution to many electric fencing failures.

Installation: Ground rods should be placed at least 25′ from your fence charger/energizer or the charger/energizer may get damaged during an electrical storm. The ground rods should also be at least 50′ away (shock hazard) from any underground piping, cable, or any other grounding system and near the fence line. A ground rod closer than 50′ from a waterline (even if the waterline is plastic) may cause signal interference on your home computer, phone, radio, television, or anything else that requires an electrical signal. The universally accepted standard for an adequate grounding system has a minimum of three ground rods spaced at least 10′ apart, in a vertical configuration. If you space them less than 10′ apart, it may reduce the amount of energy returning to the fence and the amount of shock the animal will receive.
