VOLTAGE CHECKLIST
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.
Energizer needs
