• Do not mount in places exposed to heat sources (e.g. a sun heated metal wall.)
• Do not connect two Energizers to the same earth system.
• If connected to a mains power circuit that doesn’t have a Residual Current Device (RCD), then a plug-
in RCD should always be used.
• Electric animal fences shall be installed and operated so that they cause no electrical hazard to
persons, animals or their surroundings.
• Do NOT become entangled in the fence. Avoid electric fence construc ons that are likely to lead to
the entanglement of animals or persons.
• The appliance is not intended for use by young children or in fi rm persons without supervision.
• WARNING - INSTALLERS/USERS SHOULD NOTE:
Avoid
contac ng the fence with the head, mouth, neck or torso.
Do not climb over, through or under a mul -wire electric
fence. Use a gate or a specially designed crossing point.
• An electric animal fence shall not be supplied from two separate energizers or from independent
fence circuits of the same energizer.
• For any two separate electric animal fences, each supplied from a separate energizer independently
med, the distance between the wires of the two electric animal fences shall be at least 2.5m. If
this gap is to be closed, this shall be e ff ected by means of electrically non-conduc ve material or an
isolated metal barrier.
• Barbed wire or razor wire shall not be electri fi ed by an energizer.
• A non-electri fi ed fence incorpora ng barbed wire or razor wire may be used to support one or more
o ff -set electri fi ed wires of an electric animal fence. The suppor ng devices for the electri fi ed wires
shall be constructed so as to ensure that these wires are posi oned at a minimum distance of 150
mm from the ver cal plane of the non-electri
fi ed wires. The barbed wire and razor wire shall be
earthed at regular intervals.
• Follow the energizer manufacturer’s recommenda ons regarding earthing.
• Do not install an earth (ground) system for your electric fence within 10 m (33 ) of any power,
telecommunica ons or other system.
• Use high voltage lead-out cable in buildings to e ff ec vely insulate from the earthed structural parts of
the building and where soil could corrode exposed galvanized wire. Do not use household electrical
cable.
• Connec ng leads that are run underground shall be run in conduit of insula ng material or else
insulated high voltage lead-out cable shall be used. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the
connec ng leads due to the e
ff ects of animal hooves or tractor wheels sinking into the ground.
• Connec ng leads shall not be installed in the same conduit as the mains supply wiring,
communica on cables or data cables.
• Connec ng leads and electric animal fence wires shall not cross above overhead power or
communica on lines.
• Crossings with overhead power lines shall be avoided wherever possible. If such a crossing cannot be
avoided it shall be made underneath the power line and as nearly as possible at right angles to it.
• If connec ng leads and electric animal fence wires are installed near an overhead power line, the
clearances shall not be less than those shown in the table below.
