Connecting the Signal Field Wire
All Invisible Fence
®
Brand Pet Containment Systems must be grounded per
the NATIONAL ELECTRICAL CODE (NEC) to be protected against lightning.
ICT 801, ICT 802, and ICT 810 Transmitters must be installed using the LP-4100
(ICT 801 and ICT 810) or LP-4200 (ICT 802) Lightning Protection devices in
accordance with the NEC and applicable local building codes.
1. Strip approximately ¼ inch (6.3mm) of insulation
from each end of the signal field wires (in-ground
containment loop). Using your finger, depress the
tab of one red connector (marked LOOP) on the
Lightning Protector. Insert one stripped end of the
signal field wire into the red connector hole.
Release the tab. Repeat for the remaining signal
field wire.
Note: Insert only one wire per hole.
2. Next, connect the ICT 801, ICT 802, or ICT 810 transmitter
to the LP-4100 or LP-4200 with a short length of twisted
pair wire. Strip approximately ¼ inch (6.3mm) of insulation
from each end of the twisted pair wires. Insert one of the
twisted pair transmitter wires into a black connector hole
(marked TRANSMITTER) of the LP-4100 or LP-4200 in the
same manner as the signal field wires connected in step #1.
Repeat for the remaining twisted pair wire.
(Remember —
insert only one wire per hole)
3. Connect the other end (stripped the same way as in step #2)
of the twisted pair wires to the transmitter via the signal field
connectors. Use your thumb to push back on the white tabs
located on top of the signal field wire connectors. While
pushing back the tabs, put the end of each wire into each
opening of the connectors. Hold the wires steady, and
release the tabs.
4. Before plugging in the LP-4100 or LP-4200, make sure the electric outlet is properly
grounded. Remove the plastic cover that protects the plug on the LP-4100 or LP-
4200 and plug it into a grounded 3-prong household outlet (110VAC) within five feet
(5’) of where you wish to install the transmitter. When possible, use the center screw
that holds the outlet cover plate in place. If this screw is missing or not long enough,
use the longer screw provided with the Lightning Protector. NOTE: This screw is for
mechanical attachment only and does NOT provide electrical ground!
