This device is used to pass high voltage to a set of live wires mounted on a gate for a security electric fence. When the gate is open the gate is bypassed (gate wires are not live or monitored). It can also be configured to short the fence live wires to ground when the gate is opened to create an alarm.
This switch can be used for sliding or swing gates, so long as the swing gates alignment can be maintained. mounting brackets included.
Open disconnected
When the gate is closed the gate wires are live and monitored. The gate fence circuit forms part of the whole fence series circuit. Cutting the wires on the closed gate will trigger an alarm.
