Electrical systems

With electrical systems pigeons receive an uncomfortable but harmless electrical impulse, which drives them away. Electrical impulse systems work on the same principle as metal electrical fences.  

There are in principle two basic versions: rod and profile. There are also several special versions for specific purposes.

Electrical systems are amongst the most effective control methods.

The important characteristics of electrical systems

  • Electrical systems work on the metal fence principle: the animals are scared away, but not killed.
  • The system is supplied with ca. 4,000 volts, enough for up to 30,000 m of system. The current source should be installed in an outside area.
  • Special electrical systems are available for the control of smaller and larger birds.
  • Electrical systems are suitable for medium to large populations.

Electrical system versions

  • Rod electrical systems consist of two parallel stainless steel rods of varying diameters. These systems are cost-effective, but there is a risk of short-circuits.
  • Improved short-circuit protection and thus guaranteed maintenance-free profile electrical systems. The electrical cables are embedded in a plastic profile.
  • A special profile electrical system are the very low and discreet Scaretape and  Avishock System. The electrical cables are on a profile that is bonded direct without plastic support brackets.
  • If the electrical system is to be installed around curves, e.g. columns, the Columbex profile electrical system is the most suitable. The profile is softer and easier to form, making  it particularly suitable for monuments.
  • The combination system is suitable for long continuous installations (e.g. attics). It is particularly discreet due to its very thin wires.

Different versions of electrical systems

Pros
  • Highly effective
  • No habituation possible, as with other systems
  • Discreet
  • Effective
  • No drilling necessary, attached by bonding
  • Some electrical systems also work against larger birds
Cons
  • Electrical systems are only economic after a certain length due to the current source required.
  • There is a risk of short-circuits with pole systems, as if damaged the electrical cables can come into contact with the retaining bracket.
  • It can happen that birds bridge the electrical system by laying nesting material on it.
  • The current source should, due to lightning protection, be installed in an outside area.
