VOLTAGE CHECK LIST

Yes
Turn energizer off and
remove the fence wire from
the red (FENCE) terminal.
Turn energizer on again and
check using a DVM3 Digital
Voltmeter (G503). Is the
voltage across the terminals
greater than 5000 volts?
Yes
Reconnect fence wire
and turn the energizer
on. Test the earth
system using the
DVM3.
Is the earth voltage
more than
200 volts?
Yes
Improve the earth
system: add
galvanised earth
stakes to the earth
system un l the earth
voltage is
200 volts or below.
Is the energizer opera ng?
No
No
1. Check the electrical connec ons
are secure eg. from the fence to the
red (FENCE) terminal, from the earth
system to the green (EARTH) terminal,
at gates etc.
2. Check the voltage on the fence
every 33m (100 ). Note if the voltage
is dropping. The closer to a fault, the
lower the voltage reading will be.
Become aware of things that cause
faults and always be on the lookout
for: stray pieces of wire on the fence,
heavy undergrowth, cracked or
broken insulators, broken wires etc.
No
Have the ba ery tested.
If the ba ery is OK(12V
ba ery - at least 11.5V, 9V
ba ery - at least 6V) then
the energizer needs to be
serviced.
