JVA ELECTRIC FENCE SYSTEMS
1. To simulate a break, disconnect a joint in the live wires at some convenient point
on the fence, making sure that the wires do not short to ground or between +ve
and -ve wires.
2. Check that the energizer fence alarm activates. If not, check the voltage (using an
electric fence voltmeter) at the inputs to the monitor. Set the fence alarm voltage
level higher than this voltage. If there is still considerable voltage, you may have
induced voltage in the live return wires. If so, reduce the induced voltage by
placing a 3000 Ohm resistor between the live return and earth return terminals (or
from +ve to -ve in a Bi-Polar system) at the monitor.
3. Reconnect the live wires.
4. Place a short on the fence live wires.
5. Check that the monitor goes into alarm.
6. Remove the short.
