ENERGISER DISPLAY Models MT5, MT15, 35 & BT12, 20

1. 

 Overload

 red LED - flashes slowly (once per pulse) when the load exceeds an acceptable level. When 

this occurs it is likely that the fence has a fault. Operating into an overload will NOT harm the MT60 / 100, 

BT50 / 80. This LED also flashes quickly to indicate a low battery or energiser error.

2.   

Energiser OK

 green LED - Flashes with each pulse to show the unit is operating correctly.

  

 .

3

KiloVolts

 display – Shows the voltage on the output terminals of the energiser. The higher the voltage 

the more effective the fence will be. 
  

 .

4

Load Factor

 display – from 0 to 10, 10 being a dead short circuit, 0 being no fence load at all. Indicates 

the fence load at the energiser. Useful for a quick check of fence health.

ERROR CODES

Battery  powered  energisers  may  see  the  red  Overload  LED  flash  twice  (2)  in  succession,  or  for  models 

featuring digital display a reading of 

Lo b,

 this means 

low battery voltage.

 (Early models will switch 

themselves off to conserve the battery on re-applying the correct voltage the energiser will start up). At this 

warning indication your battery needs to be re-charged to prevent permanent battery damage and loss of fence 

voltage.
Should the red overload LED flash 3 or more times in succession, or for models featuring digital display 

a reading 

Er 03, 04 or 05

 your energiser will require service, please return to the point of purchase for 

professional care.
