Went to the garden today and saw that the coons were not deterred by the electric fence and were sampling my sweetcorn. On the other side of the garden I found the problem. A deer had gone through the fence, knocked one of the gate handles into the grass, broke the top wire and left an insulator 25 feet away. Electricity hits the top wire first, so when the wire broke, the juice was cut off to the lower wires.
