DTS EF GATE CONTACT S/POLE

• Purpose of  DTS EF GATE CONTACT S/POLE
  A single-pole (S/POLE) gate contact provides a reliable electrical connection across a swinging or sliding gate where the electric fence wiring needs to continue without interruption. It ensures the electric fence circuit remains live even when the gate opens or closes.

• How it works:

  • Mounted on the gate and gate post.

  • As the gate closes, the spring-loaded contact (often brass or stainless steel) touches the fixed contact plate, completing the circuit.

  • When the gate opens, the connection safely breaks.

• Applications:

  • Common in electric fencing (DTS, Nemtek, JVA, etc.).

  • Used on single-leaf gates where only one live connection is required (hence single pole).

  • If both live and earth connections are needed, a double-pole (D/POLE) contact is typically used.

• Advantages:

  • Maintains security integrity — no “dead zone” in the fence.

  • Durable and weather-resistant (usually made for outdoor use).

  • Simple installation and low maintenance.
