Don't ask me where I got this, but ... An electrically dangerous fence is defined in most countries by the energy that the fence can deliver to a 500 ohm load in a second. The IEC is something like 8 joules from fence energizers. Canada and the UK is something like 5 Joules. The fence must pulse once every second.
There is an IEC regulation on them, but what it is I haven't a clue. As far as how they relate to the LVD and such, I also haven't a clue. Sorry for all the non-information.
