Greetings. I have posted about this subject before but I am still somewhat confused, so please bear with me. I want to subdivide my pastures using temporary moveable eletric fencelines. The entire grazing area is enclosed with high-tensile woven wire that is NOT electrified. I do not want to electrify the entire area. I have been looking at small D-battery, solar, or car-battery powered energizers which I can move from location to location. My biggest question is: how do you ground them? I know that for permanent installations you have to build a grounding system of 2 or 3 rods 10 feet apart, but what about these temp. lines? Do I have to build several "grounding stations" all over my pastures and clip the fencer to them every time I move it? It seems that if these fencers are designed to be moved, the ground can"t be permanent in any one spot. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.
