Abstract
An electric fence to span a given region between two substantially opposing supports, the fence including one or more insulators coupled to each opposing support; an electrical power source electrically connected to a first conductive strand and configured to apply an electrical current thereto, at least one further electrically distinct conductive strand coupled to the insulators and at a different electric potential than the first strand, characterised in that at least one insulator includes a substantially non-conductive element having one or more confined pathways, the element rotatable about a central axis orientated to maintain symmetrical revolution and wherein the conductive strands extend continuously and repeatedly between each support, each conductive strand in contact with at least one of the insulators.
