Read the measured value on the display (2). e.g. 6.0 = 6,000 V
When taking the measurement, only touch the push-button of the
equipment and never touch the ground spike, the supply cable,
the ground or any part of the electric fence.
Otherwise there is a risk of electrocution with life-threatening
consequences.
A doctor must always be consulted after electrocution.
People with active implants, e.g. pacemakers, etc. should not
carry out the voltage measurement.
Discuss the procedure with your doctor before carrying it out.
If the safety of the user cannot be guaranteed, the equipment
must be switched off and secured against unintentional use.
The fence voltage should be at least 2.0 = 2,000V in order to
ensure the safety of the fence.
For measured values above 12,000 V (12.0)
the display shows “HI”!
