Electrical fencing installation requires proper approval or permission from the local authority (PBT). There are many safety guidelines to comply with — usually, there will be clear safety and warning signs displayed.

If you ask me, just lodge a complaint with the PBT if you’re unsure about the legality of the installation. Once you report it, the PBT can investigate and provide feedback on whether the installation is legal or not.

If it is legally done, at least you’ll have peace of mind.

If it is illegal, you’ll likely see the PBT take action or pay a visit to your neighbor.
