Why are Substation fences electrified?
In Queensland, the electrification of fences at substations is used as a security measure to protect the facilities from unauthorised access and vandalism. These electric fences are part of the broader security and safety protocols that the state government implement to ensure the integrity of the electrical grid.
Electric fences at substations typically operate at high voltages, enough to deter intruders but regulated to avoid serious injury. The use of such security measures is governed by strict safety standards and regulations to ensure that they are safe for both the public and utility workers. Additionally, these fences are usually accompanied by warning signs to alert the public about the presence of high voltage.
