Frequently asked questions/Troubleshooting
What voltage is required to control animals?
4 kV is widely accepted as the recommended minimum voltage to control animals. However, you
also require a well constructed fence system to ensure that animals cannot push through electrified
wires.
The fence voltage is below 4 kV. How do I increase the voltage?
Check the energiser. Ensure that the energiser is set on full power.
Disconnect the energiser from the fence and earth system. Measure the voltage across the
energiser terminals using a PATURA Fence Compass, Digital Voltmeter or Fence Tester.
If the voltage is less than 6 kV, request your PATURA service centre to check the energiser.
Check the energiser earthing. For P4600 /P6000 energiser, check that the earth monitor
voltage on the LCD display is below 0.8 kV, see "Earth monitoring" on page 56. For the P4500
use the procedure described in "Installing and testing an earth system" on page 63.
Check your fence system for faults. The most common source of low voltage is faults on the fence
line. If the fence, earth and energiser are in good condition and the voltage is still below 4 kV,
talk to your PATURA distributor. They will help you identify whether recent extensions to your
fence, a poor fence layout, or soil conditions may be causing inadequate voltage.
How do I locate faults?
The recommended tool for locating faults is the PATURA Fence Compass.
This combined voltage and current meter allows you to rapidly locate sources of current
leakage. Alternatively, use a PATURA Digital Voltmeter or Fence Tester. Use cut-out switches to turn
off the power to different sections of the electric animal fence. If the voltage on the fence
increases when a section of the electric fence is turned off, then investigate that section for
possible faults.
There are no lights flashing on the energiser.
Check the power supply. Ensure that the power is switched on.
If the energiser still does not operate, request your PATURA service centre to check the energiser.
