Pro-Tek Electric Rope Accessories

Now that you have your Pro-Tek electric rope horse fencing selected, you will need to install your fence properly with compatible accessories. Following the manufacturer's installation instructions and using the proper accessories, where recommended, will ensure your fence is installed for long-lasting use.

Installation Tips

• Tensioning: You can tension the Pro-Tek electric rope horse fencing system with wire tighteners or with the ElectroBraid™ tension kit (yes, it's compatible).
• Splicing: Running two ends of Pro-Tek electric rope through the electric rope splice will connect the two rail ends together.
• Connection: To run the electric current to your Pro-Tek rope, you will need to run your burial wire and Pro-Tek electric rope rail through an electric rope splice.*Note: Pro-Tek electric rope is a stainless steel-based fence system and is not compatible with copper-based products. If you need to connect a copper wire or ElectroBraid™ to a Pro-Tek rail, you will need to use a neutral plate connector.
