MERLIN STEALTH
If connecting leads and electric fence wires are installed near an overhead power
line, their height above the ground shall not exceed 3m.
Where an electric security fence passes below bare power line conductors, the
highest metallic element shall be effectively earthed for a distance of not less
than 5m on either side of the crossing point.
This height applies either side of the orthogonal projection of the outermost
conductors of the power line on the ground surface, for a distance of
2m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage not exceeding 1 000 V
-
15m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage exceeding 1 000V
-
Electric security fences and their ancillary equipment shall be installed, operated
and maintained in a manner that minimizes danger to persons, and reduces the
risk of persons receiving an electric shock unless they attempt to penetrate the
physical barrier, or are in a secure area without authority. Exposed conductive
parts of the physical barrier shall be effectively earthed.
A spacing of 2.5 m shall be maintained between un-insulated electric fence
conductors or un-insulated connecting leads supplied from different energizers.
This spacing may be less where conductors or connecting leads are covered by
insulating sleeving, or consist of insulated cables, rated to at least 10kV.
This requirement need not apply where the separately energized conductors are
separated by a physical barrier, which does not have any openings greater than
50mm.
A vertical separation of not less than 2.5m shall be maintained between pulsed
conductors fed from different energizers.
Ensure that all ancillary equipment connected to the electric security fence circuit
provides a degree of isolation between the fence circuit and the supply mains
equivalent to that provided by the energizer. Protection from the weather shall
be provided from the ancillary equipment unless this equipment is certified by
the manufacturer as being suitable for use outdoors, and is of a type with a
minimum degree of protection IPX4.

Questions and answers
the gate 1 and gate 2 lights arent working Why
Gate 1 and Gate 2 lights may not be working on the Nemtek MERLIN STEALTH if there is an issue with the Master energizer, as Gates 1 and 2 are associated with the Master. Possible reasons include:
1. A tamper or service condition on the Master energizer.
2. Power supply issues to the energizer or gate circuits.
3. Faulty wiring or connections to the lights.
4. Incorrect keypad use—Master keypad should be used only on the Master unit.
Check the Master energizer status and connections for faults or tamper indicators.
