Kit Solutions > Buy a Kit > Buy a 3-Wire Kit 
Buy a Three-Wire (3-D) Kit: The basic kit (four lengths): The basic kits below are designed to place three charged polywires (one baited) on two lines of posts running up to 330, 660, 990, or 1320 feet. The supplies included in these basic kits can handle up to 4 corners, ends, or sharp turns. Detailed setup instructions are included. Chargers and gates are not included. To buy a charger compatible with your basic kit, select an AC-, battery-, or solar-powered charger from the second table. To complete your kit, purchase the materials needed to make one or more gates from the third table. These 3-wire electric fences are more effective than single-wire electric fences for several reasons. By adding an element of depth (which deer do not perceive well) they make the deer more reluctant to confront the fence; they also make it more difficult to surmount the fence by going over or under; and by adding depth they make it possible to run the inner wires fairly close to the protected plants (giving the deer no place to jump into), while keeping the outer wire far enough away from the plants so that the deer cannot browse by reaching over the wire. To see the parts included in this kit, click on Parts List. To view a detailed schematic drawing of the kit, click on Drawing. To further customize a three-wire kit or to plan an electric fence modeled on this kit, go to the Parts List and follow the instructions at the bottom of the table. Purchase basic kit here: Choose your charger: Select the charger for your kit from the table below. To use an AC-powered charger, your fence (the nearest part) will need to be less than 50 feet from the closest AC outlet. If this distance is over 50 feet but less than 500 feet, you can still use an AC-powered charger by purchasing additional insulated undergate and hookup wire. (Please note that you cannot use an ordinary outdoor extension cord to connect an AC-powered charger to your fence.) Add One or More Gates: Decide the number of gates your fence will need and enter this number in the "QTY" box of the table below. |
