Product Identification and Energizer Description The Agri 80, Agri 150 and Agri 200 can be identified by the label on the front of the energizer or by the label on the side of the energizer. The energizer display will also identify the energizer when it is switched off. -
Page 10: Mounting The Energizer
Mounting the Energizer Do not remove the lid STEP 1: The energizer cardboard box packaging has a drilling template printed on the bottom. Use this template and drill 4 x 8mm holes in the wall for mounting the unit. Four nail-in anchors are supplied with the unit. Insert the plastic sleeve of the nail in anchor into the wall then hammer the screw in with a screwdriver and hammer. -
Page 11: Installation Instructions
Installation Instructions Install the energizer in a dry environment and out of direct sunlight. The energizer must be installed in a location that is not accessible to children. If the energizer is installed inside a cabinet ensure that there is adequate ventilation. -
Page 12: Fence Wiring
Fence Wiring HOW AN ELECTRIC FENCE WORKS In order for a fence to shock an animal an electrical circuit needs to be completed. The energizer sends a high-voltage pulse through the fence live wires. The energizer needs to be earthed. When the animal touches the live wire, the pulse will flow from the live fence wires to the animal, then into the earth, and back to the energizer, completing the circuit. - Page 13 Fence Wiring TIPS FOR BETTER EARTHING • Place your earth spikes in damp areas where possible. • Earth spikes must be placed in the vicinity of the energizer. There should be at least three earth spikes, placed a minimum of two meters apart. •...
- Page 14 Fence Wiring PERMANENT ELECTRIC FENCE A permanent fence for game animals or livestock will require higher tensile strengths, be more robust, have a longer life span and use more durable insulators and equipment. Animals tend to run into the fence before seeing it and they could damage the fence, especially in the dark.

Page 17: Installation Notes
Installation Notes • Keep the wires to the fence separate from mains and communication wiring. • Do not try and modify the energizer. Any unauthorized modifications will null and void the warranty and possibly render the unit illegal. • Use HT (high voltage) wire between the fence and energizer, including the earth wire. - Page 18 Appendix A Basic definitions • Electric Fence: A barrier which includes one or more electric conductors, insulated from earth, to which electric pulses are applied by an energizer. • Connecting Lead: An electric conductor, used to connect the energizer to the electric fence or the earth electrode.
- Page 19 Appendix B General requirements for electric fences Electric fences and their ancillary equipment shall be installed and operated and maintained in a manner that minimizes danger to persons, animals or environment, Electric fence constructions which are likely to lead to the entanglement of animals or persons shall be avoided, as entrapment can be lethal.
- Page 20 Appendix B The warning sign shall typically appear as depicted in the figure below or have the substance of “CAUTION: Electric fence”. The inscription shall be indelible, inscribed on both sides of the warning plate and have a height of at least 25mm. The warning sign should be legible from the secure area and the public access area.
- Page 21 Appendix B Where an electric animal 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. Crossings with overhead power lines shall be avoided wherever possible. If such a crossing cannot be avoided, it shall be made underneath the power line and as nearly as possible at right angles to it.
