To install your e-Fence, you will need a flat-blade shovel, standard screwdriver and wire
cutter/stripper. If your layout calls for the wires to be connected across concrete, you will
also need a caulking gun, exterior silicon caulk and a circular saw with a masonry blade for
cutting the pavement.
Placing the Wire
The fence wire must make a continuous loop for your system to operate properly. The
signal is delivered from the terminal of the transmitter, through the fence wire, back to the
other terminal on the transmitter.
Canceling the fence signal
Depending on your layout, you may want an open area where your dog can cross over the
e-fence without getting stimulation. By twisting two pieces of fence wire so they are
braided, (see diagram) from the outside of the transmitter to the exterior fence wire will
give you an open area for your dog to cross. This will allow the dog to run across the area
without receiving stimulation. To twist the fence wire, cut two equal lengths of wire. Holding
them side by side, place one end of both wires into a power drill and spin the wires until
the twists are about 1 to 3 inches apart. The tighter the wires are twisted, the better the
signal cancellation. The wires can also be twisted manually.
Burying your fence wire
The e-fence boundary wire does not have to be buried to operate.
For protective
measures we highly recommend the wire be buried at least one-two inches
