    This British Standard specifies requirements for the design, installation and maintenance of electric security fences.

    It is applicable to installations where the electric security fence is to provide both a deterrent effect and a physical barrier.

    It does not outline the specific method to be used in construction. Construction specifics are covered in the appointed approved manufacturer’s installation courses and material available only to accredited installation dealers and marketing partners.
