STEP 4
Install the balance of the line posts and attach insulators and wire.
Insulators should be placed so that the wire will be toward the inside
of the corral.
Once you have all posts,
insulators and wire in place,
adjustment of the corner
tie-downs may be necessary.

2. Carefully install the ground system according to the directions
included in this manual. Most electric fencing failures are due to
improper grounding.
3. Take time to properly connect leadout wire, ground wire and
fence line splices. This is the second most common cause of elec-
tric fence failure. Use clamps, split bolts and taps if necessary
(not included with this kit). Make sure all connection surfaces
are of bare shiny metal.
4. When using wire for fence and earth connections, use ade
-
quately insulated hook-up or underground wire (rated for at
least 20,000 volts) for leadout wires to ground and fence and
anywhere the hot wire must travel underground. Never use
standard household insulated wire, which is generally rated at
only 600 volts or less.
5. Maintain proper distances from buried and above ground: util
-
ity company ground rods, water pipes, metal siding and tele-
phone wire.
6. Use an electric fence volt meter to periodically check the condi
-
tion of your fence and to diagnose and repair shorts, poor con-
nections and inadequate ground conditions.
