In the beginning, foals should not be left on the pasture for too long in bad weather. Two risks should also be strictly avoided: fences that are not intact, and fences that only give way when they break (e.g. when a foal bumps into the fence). A fence as depicted above is by no means recommended. <\/span>A properly functioning <a href=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/en\/how-does-an-electric-fence-work\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">electric pasture fence<\/a> is essential for a paddock.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Electric fences with defective conductor material are dangerous in two ways: scribed litz <a href=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/en\/conductive-materials-electric-fence-the-polywire\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wires<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/en\/conductive-materials-electric-fence-the-polyrope\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">ropes<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/en\/conductive-materials-electric-fence-polytape\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">tapes<\/a> can easily tear completely: If the conductivity is impaired, the electric fence no longer works at all \u2013 which means that animals leave the pasture. Especially in the case of young animals, this is a situation that every animal owner wants to avoid. <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/en\/connect-electric-fence-conductive-material-in-30-seconds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">You can read how to repair your pasture fence in 30 seconds in the article.<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Today, I would like to introduce you to another Litzclip\u00ae feature: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ako-agrar.com\/en\/product\/safety-link-for-electric-rope-litzclip\/171047\/17410\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">the safety link.<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link.jpg\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-409\" src=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"Litzclip Safety Link\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-80x80.jpg 80w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-1030x1030.jpg 1030w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-36x36.jpg 36w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-180x180.jpg 180w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-705x705.jpg 705w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-120x120.jpg 120w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link-450x450.jpg 450w, https:\/\/litzclip.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/07\/Litzclip-Rope-Connector-Saftey-Link.jpg 1500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a>The safety link is the perfect protection for horses in panic situations. While a horse would entangle itself in the rope of a conventional pasture and be seriously injured when breaking through, the safety link gives way.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p2\">This way, you have a predetermined breaking point in the fence band, which can be easily and quickly repaired. By means of replacement safety knobs, the rope can be re-connected very quickly with the high-quality connecting plates made of stainless steel. And most importantly, the conductivity of the fence is not affected by the safety link.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Thus, the electric fence is never damaged for a long time and you can enjoy your healthy animals. In particular, you don&#8217;t have to worry about your foals, which can sometimes run wildly into the fence.<\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><strong><span class=\"s1\">Note: The safety link minimizes the risk of injury to your horses, but the breaking load of your electric fence is reduced by it\u2019s use!<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s1\">Practical advice: Use the safety link as often as possible, because with every predetermined breaking point you reduce the risk of injury to your horses. And at the same time, you have the possibility to open the pasture at the connection points quickly and uncomplicated and to close it again. Because \u2026 who doesn\u2019t know this?
