VOLTAGE CHECK LIST
No
Is the energizer opera ng?
Test the earth
system.
Is the ground
voltage more
than
200 volts?
Unplug the energizer from
the power supply and
remove the fence wire from
the red (FENCE) terminal.
Plug energizer in again and
check. Is the voltage across
the terminals greater than
5000 volts?
1. Check the electrical connec ons
are secure eg. from the fence to the
red (FENCE) terminal, from the ground
system to the green (GROUND)
terminal, at gates etc.
2. Check the voltage on the fence
every 33m (100 ). Note if the voltage
is dropping. The closer to a fault, the
lower the voltage reading will be.
Become aware of things that cause
faults and always be on the lookout
for: stray pieces of wire on the fence,
heavy undergrowth, cracked or
broken insulators, broken wires etc.
Test the power
supply.
If the power
supply is
OK then the
energizer needs
to be serviced.
Improve the earth
system: add
galvanised earth
stakes to the earth
system un l the earth
voltage is
200 volts or below.
