Step 5: Position, Twist and Splice the Boundary Wire
Once you have designed your layout, the next step is to
position the wire along your property. Hold off on burying
the wire until you have tested the system first.
1. Start with one end of the wire at the transmitter, but
do not plug it in yet. Run the wire outdoors all the
way around your planned perimeter and back to
the transmitter.
2. You will need to twist the 2 wires together for the area
running from the transmitter inside your home out to the
garden so that your pet can cross this section without a
stimulation (
5A
). Twisting both ends of the wire together
30 times per metre cancels the signal. Keep in mind that
crossover areas will only work when set up within the
containment area. Straight crossover breaks along the
perimeter, such as across driveways (
5A
), cannot be
created and the signal will not be cancelled.
3. The fastest way to twist 2 wires is to cut 2 pieces a little
longer than the length you need, twist them, and then
“splice” in that section. Anchor one end of the 2 wires to
something secure, and insert the other end into a power
drill. Pull the wire taut and then use the drill to slowly
twist the wire. Follow the splicing guide below to learn
how to reconnect this twisted portion back to the main
boundary wire.
Splicing Guide
Although not required, it is recommended that you cut
and splice the wire between each twisted section. Your
Rechargeable In-Ground Fence
™
system comes with 2 gel-
filled capsules to ensure that your splices are waterproof.
You can give us a call if you would like to purchase more
gel-filled capsules.
a. Strip approximately 1 cm of insulation off the ends of
the wires to be spliced (
5B
).
b. Insert the stripped ends into the wire connector and
twist the wire connector around the wires. Make sure
there is no copper exposed beyond the end of the
wire connector.
c. Tie a knot 7.5 cm–10 cm from the wire connector (
5C
).
Ensure that the wire connector is secure on the wire
splice.
d. Once you have securely spliced the wires together,
open the lid of the gel-filled capsule and insert
the wire connector as deeply as possible into the
waterproof gel inside the capsule (
5D
).
e. Snap the lid of the capsule shut (
5E
).
Additional Boundary Wire
Extra spools of boundary wire can be purchased in
lengths of 150 m per spool where you purchased the kit
or through the Customer Care Centre.
Note:
When adding boundary wire, it must act as a
continuous loop.
The table on the right indicates the approximate length of
boundary wire needed for a square, single loop layout.
The length will vary due to the amount of twisted wire
and the layout used.
