14 TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS FROM OUR EXPERTS
TIP 1: TEST THE ENERGISER (FIG. 1)
1. Remove the nuts from the fence and ground terminals.
2. Hold the grounding rod of a fence tester against the energiser’s ground terminal.
3. Now touch the fence tester against the energiser’s fence terminal. You should have the voltage
over 6000 V. Measurements should only be done with 2-pole fence testers (with an earth rod).
Do not use 1-pole fence testers!
TIP 2: CHECK FENCE SUPPLY LINE
1. Switch off the energiser.
2. Disconnect the fence connection cable from the fence.
3. Switch the energiser on again and measure on the fence connection cable directly. (Here the
voltage should be almost identical to the voltage directly on the energiser).
TIP 3: CHECK GROUNDING (FIG. 2)
How do I measure the voltage directly on the earth rod?
1.
Short-circuit the fence wire to the ground at a distance of approx. 10m from the grounding (e.g.
using the iron rods).
2. Now put the fence tester grounding rod between the 2 points and measure the voltage directly
on the grounding rods. (The voltage should not exceed 1000V) If there is already voltage on the
grounding without iron rods, this must be improved.

TIP 4: POWER SUPPLY
1. 9V energisers: battery voltage should be between 4 – 9 V.
2. 12V energisers: battery voltage should be above 11.4 V. Under 11 V deep discharge possible.
3. 230V energisers: energisers must blink, if necessary try on another power outlet (no blinking
= defective).
DO NOT USE INVERTERS WITH 230V DEVICES!
TIP 5: FENCE CONNECTION
1. Underground lines should only be installed with Art. 32611/32612. (Installation in the protective
pipe is recommended).
2. Above-ground lines should be protected from sharp edges. If possible, lay in insulators to
prevent flashovers.
3. Fence supply lines should only be laid with high voltage resistant cables. No house installation
cables may be used (approval only up to 500V).
