Do you mean electrifying the chain link?
Oh, no you don't want to do that.
What I have done is use electric fence wire and insulators that I drill holes in and attach to the chain link panels metal framework. Usually takes two cable ties to hold them securely. I place the insulators about three inches above the ground level. Sometimes the lay of the land causes that level to be higher or lower. Then I hook the charger up to the wire per instructions. Many use a solar charger type of power for their charger. My husband just wires mine with a plug so I can just plug it in inside the coop. Make sure and attach a ground wire. Now the way I do mine is I wire the ground by winding it around one of the framework pipes on my chain link fence panels. My panels are the type used for dog kennels. Since the panel's are in direct contact with the ground, they make a good ground connection.
The only animal that has breached my set up was a stray cat and I ended that problem by extending the hot wire, splicing a wire into the existing setup and running it around the top of the run panels once again using insulators to secure the wire.
They make two types of hot wire fence insulators. One will set close to the post you attach it to the other is about 4 inches long. If you can find ones that nail or screw on they save the work of having to drill holes through the ones that clamp on, although the clamp on work well by spreading the insulator and drilling holes into the stem to run cable ties through.
This is the clamp on variety but I like the length as my bantams can reach through the fence and grab a blade of grass without getting shocked. The part that clamps on the T post is what I'm talking about when I say, it can be spread to go against a round post but you can drill holes at the base of the 'stem' to pass cable ties to.
This is the nail on variety to use with wood posts but you can use cable ties to fasten them to metal.
The point is to have the charge going through the wire that the insulator is supporting and have it low enough to the ground that wildlife will touch it with their noses and mark your flock off their dinner menu. For fox, raccoons, possums, etc that 3-4 inches above the ground will work great. You can even hang a bit of bacon over the wire to coax them in for a snack and ruin their day when they get shocked.
It will come back if it knows they are unprotected..it's an easy food source for it, and raccoons are hungry as well. I'm sorry that is so sad to find.
