    Does anybody know if the output from mains electric fence can be split for two independent fences so that as a consequence of a fence earthing in one field will not automatically cause a the fence in the second field to fail.

    Basically I have a mains fence serving tow fields at present but if one of them fails it immediately knocks the other one out

    No, theres only one output so grounding one circuit will knock them both.
    You need to get another fencer, maybe a battery or solar one might be better?
