Wire Splicing

For best results when connecting electric
fence wire, polywire or polytape, only use
the following methods to protect your 
fence wire from corrosion and increase 
the reliability of full power being distributed 
to the rest of your electric fence.

Wire Connections

Split Bolt

 

When joining fence wire anywhere on the 

Sleeve

 

fence, be sure to use B Figure 8 or Reef Knot.

Wire Joints

 

See Below.

Figure 8 Knot

Reef Knot

 

Step 2

 

Knotting Polytape 

Knotting Polywire

 

When knotting polywire, be sure to double 
the ends of the connecting fence wire.  
Then tie a Slip Knot, as shown below.

Pull Wire 

to Tighten

To connect polytape, first start with a 
standard knot.  Be sure to leave between 
3-4” of extra tape.  Peel back around 2.5” 
of the tape, exposing the conductive wires. 
Twist the two wires together to make the 
connection complete.

Step 4 continued

Properly connect the hook-up wire from the energiser to the fence line(s) using
appropriate connection methods to ensure a good connection.

Joints along the fence line also need to be well made to ensure a good electrical
connection.  Some common methods are shown in diagram 2 below.

There are two power options for your dual power AC/DC energiser:
Mains or 12V battery. They both plug into the same socket on the energiser..

 

100 - 240VAC mains

    If you have access to a mains power socket,
    then use your AC adapter (Separate Supply Unit)
    to power your energiser.

 

12V battery

    If you don't have access to mains
    or using out-doors, then use the
    battery clamp wire assembly to
    connect to a 12V rechargeable
    battery to power your energiser.

 Only use 12V rechargeable battery if powered by an external battery.

 Do not attempt to recharge a non-rechargeable battery.

 When charging the battery, ensure it is in a well ventilated area.
