Voltage Check List - Gallagher PowerBox Betriebsanleitung

Voltage Check List

Is the Energizer operating?
Yes
Turn Energizer off and
remove the fence wire
from the red (FENCE)
terminal. Turn Energizer
on again and check, using
a DVM3 Digital Volt Meter
(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 until the earth
voltage is 200 volts or
below.

12
Have the battery
tested.
If the battery is OK
(12V battery:
No
at least 11.5V,
9V battery:
at least 6V) then the
Energizer needs to be
serviced.
No
1. Check the electrical con nections
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 (100ft) using the
DVM3. 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
0
of wire on the fence, heavy
undergrowth, cracked or broken
insulators, broken wires etc.
No
