Premium 1.6mm² Stranded Aluminum Fencing Wire for Electric Fences in Kenya
High-Conductivity Stranded Aluminum Wire for Maximum Electric Fence Performance
At Moffam Electricals, we supply 1.6mm² stranded aluminum fencing wire designed specifically for high-performance electric fencing systems. This fencing wire offers superior conductivity, corrosion resistance, and mechanical flexibility, making it ideal for agricultural, residential, and industrial perimeter security in Kenya.
Unlike traditional galvanized steel, stranded aluminum wire provides significantly lower electrical resistance, ensuring stronger, consistent electric pulses throughout the fence.

Why Choose Stranded Aluminum over Galvanized Wire?
1. Superior Electrical Conductivity
Stranded aluminum has better current-carrying capabilities, enabling energizers to deliver powerful shocks over long distances with minimal loss. With 4x the conductivity of steel, it’s the best option for high-output energizers.
2. Lightweight and Flexible
Aluminum is lighter than steel, making it easier to transport and install. The stranded format increases flexibility, reducing the chances of breakage during installation or tensioning.
3. Long-Lasting Performance
Our stranded aluminum wire is engineered to resist oxidation, corrosion, and rust, even in Kenya’s humid or coastal conditions. It maintains functionality longer than galvanized alternatives.
4. Compatibility with Standard Accessories
It works perfectly with standard insulators, tensioners, strainers, and reels, ensuring seamless integration into your existing fence infrastructure.
Ideal Applications of 1.6mm² Stranded Aluminum Fencing Wire
-
Livestock control – for cattle, sheep, goats, and poultry.
-
Wildlife deterrent – keeps intruding animals out of farms or conservancies.
-
Residential electric fences – enhances perimeter protection around homes and estates.
-
Commercial security fencing – used in warehouses, factories, and business premises.
-
Solar-powered fencing systems – maximizes energy transfer efficiency.
Installation Tips for Optimal Fence Performance
Correct Tensioning
Apply uniform tension using strainers to ensure the wire stays taut over time. Avoid overtightening which can compromise elasticity.
Strategic Insulation
Use high-quality insulators spaced appropriately to prevent earthing. For every turn or corner, install corner strain insulators to handle directional forces.
Effective Earthing
Combine with efficient earthing systems to enhance shock delivery. Poor grounding is the number one reason electric fences underperform.
Energizer Compatibility
Use energizers that match the length and application of your fence. Our 1.6mm² aluminum wire pairs well with Nemtek Druid LCD series and JVA Z-Series energizers.
Cost-Effective and High Value
Though slightly more expensive than galvanized wire, stranded aluminum offers a better lifecycle value due to:
For large installations and commercial fencing, this results in lower total cost of ownership.
Safety and Compliance
Our aluminum electric fence wire complies with international standards for electric fencing. When installed correctly, it delivers non-lethal deterrence that is safe for both animals and humans.
Always install warning signs at intervals as required by Kenyan law under the Energy Act and Safety Guidelines for electric fences.
