A 30m roll of Nemtek slimline HT cable for short lead-outs, earth connections and fence repairs. This is Nemtek's S-Series single core HT cable for electric fence energizers: stranded tinned copper wires inside a double insulated, UV stabilised black sheath. It carries the energizer's pulse to the first live wire and takes the earth terminal to the earth spike, and 30m is enough when the energizer is mounted close to the fence. The same cable comes in 50m and 100m rolls.

Which HT cable length do you need?

Measure the route from the energizer to the first live wire, add the run from the earth terminal to the earth spike, then add every jumper between fence sections. 30m covers an energizer on the wall near the fence with the earth spike close by, with some left over for repairs. If the total comes to more than that, the 50m and 100m rolls are the same slimline cable, and we also list the Nemtek A-Series HT cable, a 100m roll with a solid aluminium core for fences strung with aluminium wire.

Tinned copper, double insulated, UV stabilised

Nemtek describes the S-Series as UV stabilised, double insulated, tinned copper stranded wires. The slim black sheath runs along the top of a wall or down to the earth spike in full sun. Nemtek also makes it in white; we list the black. This cable is not Nemtek's undergate cable: for runs under a gate or driveway Nemtek sells the U-Series Undergate HT cable.

What goes with it

Join the cable to the fence wire with a Nemtek 6mm bolt-type line clamp, and take the earth run to a Nemtek copper clad earth spike, whose double nut and washer clamp the cable. Nemtek's double pole lightning diverter sits in this cable run between the energizer and the fence, within 2m of the earth spike. Tidy the cable with 100mm cable ties. It suits the Merlin Stealth M18S, Merlin Stealth M28S and Wizord 4i energizers. The fence must be installed and certified by a registered electric fence installer. Alectra supplies the equipment only.

Questions people ask
What is HT cable for on an electric fence?

It is the insulated lead-out: it carries the energizer's high voltage pulse from the fence terminal to the first live wire, and links the earth terminal to the earth spike, so the pulse reaches the fence without leaking to the wall, brackets or ground on the way.

Is 30m of HT cable for electric fence work enough?

It is when the energizer sits near the fence and the earth spike is close by. Measure the run to the first live wire, the run to the earth spike and any jumpers between sections; if the total is more than 30m, take the 50m or 100m roll.

What is the voltage rating of the cable?

Nemtek does not publish a kV figure, conductor size or outside diameter for the S-Series. It describes the cable as double insulated and UV stabilised, and it is Nemtek's own HT cable for its electric fence energizers.

Can I run it underground or under a gate?

Nemtek does not say the slimline S-Series can be buried. For runs under gates and driveways Nemtek sells a separate U-Series Undergate HT cable with a galvanised conductor; ask the branch about it.

What does single core mean?

One insulated conductor per cable. You run one length from the energizer's fence terminal to the fence and a second length from the earth terminal to the earth spike.

How do I connect the cable to the fence wire?

With a Nemtek 6mm bolt-type line clamp, which Nemtek lists for joining electric fence cables and wires. At the earth spike, the Nemtek copper clad spike has a double nut and washer that clamps the cable.

Does it come in white?

Nemtek makes the slimline S-Series in white as well as black, in 30m, 100m and 200m rolls. We list the black; ask the branch about white.

Do I need an installer?

Yes. An electric fence, including the energizer connection and the earthing, must be installed and certified by a registered electric fence installer. Alectra supplies the cable and fittings only.
