Gert,

With all due respect to the seriousness of your question, I could not help but
have this "Far Side" cartoon image of a group of cows with pocket protectors 
operating safety test equipment (standing up), one of them saying another 
something like, "Bob, we'll need to have a warning put on this fence, the 
touch current is too high."

My most humble apologies,

David.

Subject: safe voltage limits for cattle ( cows horses etc)


hello Group,

Can anyone point me in the right direction to a standard or
technical report concerning safe voltage limits for farm animals
especially cows.
The beasts will be in touch on a regular basis with a DC voltage
used to charge a fence pulse generator.

I know the cows are being pulsed using 10 kV when touching the fence,
but a DC voltage may be different.
Thanks in advance.
Regards,
