Electric fencing and your Tru-Test
energizer
Congratulations on your purchase of a Tru-Test energizer.
This product has been constructed using the latest
technology and construction techniques. It has been
engineered to give superior performance and many years of
service.
It is important to read these instructions carefully and
thoroughly. They contain important safety information and
will assist you in ensuring that your electric fencing system
gives maximum performance and reliability.
Warning!
- USA and Canada - To reduce the risk of electric shock,
the energizer has a polarised plug (one blade is wider
than the other). This plug will fit in a polarised outlet
one way. If the plug does not fit fully in the outlet,
reverse the plug. If it still does not fit, contact a qualified
electrician to install the proper outlet. Do not change
the plug in any way.
- Switch the energizer off before installation or
performing any work on the fence.
- Read all the safety considerations carefully. See Safety
Considerations on page 7.
- Check your installation to ensure that it complies with all
local safety regulations.
- The energizer must be located in a shelter, and the cable
must not be handled when the temperature is below
5 °C.
- Do not connect simultaneously to a fence and to any
other device such as a cattle trainer or a poultry trainer.
Otherwise, lightning striking your fence will be
conducted to all other devices.
Note:
-
This product has been designed for use with electric
animal fences.
-
Keep this manual in a handy location.

Note: It is not acceptable to short circuit a fence return system to the earth wire of the fence. Turn the energizer back on. Using a Tru-Test Digital Voltmeter, ensure that the fence voltage is below 2 kV. Check your earth system. Insert the voltmeter's earth probe into the ground at the full extent of the lead, and clip the other lead to the last earth rod. -
