Abstract-
This paper presents the design and development of a solar-powered electric fencing system for use in distant areas and agriculture is presented in this study. To discourage animals and intruders, the device uses solar energy to charge a battery, which in turn powers a high-voltage pulse generator that sends brief, controlled electric shocks through a fence. Battery storage, a charge controller, a solar panel, and a pulse generator circuit with a step-up transformer are all included in the design. Sustainability, dependability, and affordability are prioritized, particularly for off-grid and rural settings. Additionally, the system has safety safeguards to guarantee non-lethal functioning without sacrificing efficacy. Furthermore, sophisticated monitoring, battery management, and real-time problem warnings via IoT modules are made possible by optional microcontroller integration. The system's ability to function continuously with little maintenance in a variety of weather situations is confirmed by experimental testing. The suggested architecture shows great promise for scalable implementation in contemporary perimeter security and agricultural systems.
Key Words: Solar energy, electric fencing, pulse generator, agricultural security.
