Proven Prevention of Animal Caused Outages
Every year, animals cause hundreds of substation power outages that leave thousands without power – and cost millions in repairs. Fortunately, there’s a proven solution: TransGard Systems.
For 20 years, TransGard fences have prevented power outages from squirrels, raccoons, snakes, and others, deploying a specially engineered substation fencing system that delivers a humane – but effective – electric shock to climbing animals.
Today, TransGard protects over 1,900 substations in the U.S. and Canada, offering critical benefits to utilities and their customers.
TransGard offers the only animal deterrent system with two decades of proven performance in the field.
The patented TransGard System was designed exclusively to protect substations from outage caused by squirrels, raccoons, cats, snakes and other animals. TransGard fences deliver a mild electric shock that deters climbing animals but won’t harm them, or humans – a humane approach that, according to an IEEE survey, offers the most effective barrier against animal incursion.
