Heavy-Duty Double Cut-Out Switch Reviews

4.2 Rating 17 Reviews
Read Kencove Farm Fence, Inc Reviews

Cut-out switches are used to turn electric off along the fence line while troubleshooting or making repairs. Install one on each corner to eliminate a trip to the energizer. Unused pastures and heavily weeded bottom wires may also be easily disconnected to increase fence voltage.
Kencove designed this double cut-out switch to use the easy hook-up of the Split-Bolt Tap. The contacts are independent of the knife pivot, which can easily be changed to a double-throw switch.

I installed the Cut-Out switch onto a wood post. The switch is as described made well and very strong. Obvoiusly the switch is a simple design, very easy to install. The connections are made through split bolts and are very secure. The blade is captured tight and the connection is positive. This switch was percfect for my installation for my electric rope fence.

They're a pretty okay cut-out switch but the reason I purchsed the kencove made one was for strenght. I have to say the split bolts and nuts were a big disappointment. I think theye should be stainless still and not the pewter supplied. Maybe give the customer the option to buy either the zinc plated ones or stainless still ones. I've to go a replace all of those now. Zince plated is no good in Ireland, with our weather they won't last 3 months without rusting up.

You have to insert short length of 12 gauge wire in bolt before the nut will tighten properly.

Hi Dennis, the split bolts are designed to clamp and hold individual or multiple wires. Coated jumper wire connects the fence to these split bolts and determines how you electrify the strands. Split bolts are designed to tighten down on wires after being inserted in the slot. Please reach out if you're experiencing any difficulty with your cut-out switch or if we can be of any assistance to make your fence projects easier!

Easy to install and they work as designed. The construction is a lit of less flimsy but should last.

Works as it should. Plastic seems thin but just be careful installing and they should still last a long time.
