Has the general public, say recreational walkers, ever complained about electric fencing?

Yes, electric fences in common with many other “things” in the encountered in environment, manmade and natural, can result in complaints. The pain associated with an electric fence impulse current flowing through the large muscle groups, in the legs and back, has been characterised in legal opinion (under English Law) as “transient and trifling”. A properly signed electric fence is plainly what it is, an insubstantial physical but an effective psychological barrier, painful to the touch, and on experience best not repeated! As a result even without warning signs a electric fence would be so insubstantial as to clearly not offer an effective physical barrier and as such suggests that it would be reasonable to adopt avoidance behaviour.
