High-Performance 2.5mm² Undergate Cable for Electric Fencing in Kenya

At Moffam Electricals, we supply top-grade 2.5mm² undergate cable engineered for maximum performance in electric fencing systems. Our cables are built to transfer high-voltage current safely and efficiently beneath gates or across driveways, ensuring uninterrupted fence operation even in the most demanding environments.

Understanding the 2.5mm² Undergate Cable

The 2.5mm² undergate cable is a heavy-duty, high-voltage cable designed to carry power from one section of an electric fence to another, especially where physical openings like gates exist. It ensures there is no break in the electrical circuit, maintaining a secure and continuous flow of power across the fence line.

Key Features of Our 2.5mm² Undergate Cable

Double Insulation for Enhanced Protection

Our cable features a double layer of insulation made from UV-treated polyethylene or PVC. This outer and inner sheath ensures the cable can be safely buried underground or routed through conduits without suffering from moisture or UV degradation.

UV and Weather Resistance

The outer sheath is UV-stabilized and resistant to moisture, making it ideal for outdoor environments. It resists degradation from sunlight, rain, soil contact, and varying temperatures, ensuring a long service life even in harsh Kenyan conditions.

Durable Yet Flexible

The cable is both strong and flexible, making installation easy even in tight or curved routing paths. Its insulation resists crushing and external mechanical damage, making it safe to use under driveways or heavily trafficked areas.

Technical Specifications

Uses of 2.5mm² Undergate Cable in Electric Fence Installations

• Connecting Energizers to Fence Lines
  It provides a high-voltage connection between the energizer and the fence system.

• Under-Gate Applications
  It allows the current to pass under gates or openings, maintaining circuit continuity even when the gate is open.

• Power Distribution Across Long Distances
  Ideal for running power beneath roads or driveways to reach distant fence lines.

• Multiple Fence Zone Integration
  Used to link multiple fence zones without compromising power delivery or insulation.

Advantages of Using Our 2.5mm² Cable

• Maintains full fence voltage across openings and underground sections

• Weatherproof and UV-resistant for long outdoor life

• Reliable operation in all seasons and environmental conditions

• Suitable for installation in soil, conduit, or surface mounts

• Compatible with solar, battery, and mains-powered energizers

• Flexible enough for tight routing, yet tough enough for buried applications

Proper Installation Guidelines

Recommended Installation Steps

1. Prepare the Trench
   Dig a trench approximately 300mm deep beneath the gate or across the obstacle.

2. Insert a Protective Conduit (Optional but Recommended)
   Use a PVC conduit to provide mechanical protection and improve longevity.

3. Lay the Cable
   Feed the 2.5mm² cable through the trench or conduit. Ensure it has some slack to avoid stress at connection points.

4. Backfill the Trench
   Refill with soil and tamp it down. Ensure there are no sharp stones in direct contact with the cable.

5. Terminate Securely
   Connect the cable to the live wires or terminals using waterproof connectors or crimped lugs.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

Can regular electrical wire be used under gates?
No. Standard wire is not insulated for high-voltage use and cannot withstand underground environmental conditions. Only purpose-designed undergate cables should be used.

Is conduit necessary?
While the cable is double-insulated, we recommend using conduit in areas with vehicle traffic or sharp rocks for extra protection and ease of maintenance.

Can this cable be used with solar electric fences?
Yes. It is compatible with all types of energizers including solar-powered, battery-powered, and mains-powered systems.

How long will the cable last underground?
When installed correctly, this cable can last over 10 years, depending on environmental conditions.
