INSTRUCTION MANUAL VOSS.FARMING SUNNY 200
► Follow the grounding instructions in the manual.
► Keep a minimum distance of 10 m between any electrode of the energiser and
other grounding systems (e.g. protective grounding of a power distribution
system or a grounding of a telecommunication system).
► Ensure that connection lines that are routed inside buildings are effectively
insulated from earthed, load-bearing parts of the building. To ensure this, use
insulated high-voltage cables.
► Ensure that underground connection lines are routed through electrical
conduits made from insulating material or otherwise use insulated high‑
voltage cables.
► Ensure that connection lines are not damaged by sinking animal hooves or
tractor wheels.
► When installing the electric animal fence, do not use the electric conduit from
any external sources, third parties i.e. telecommunication companies or the
main power conduit entering the building.
► The electric animal fence must be no less than 2.5 m away from earthed,
metallic objects (e.g. drinking troughs, water pipes). This is particularly
important in areas where people may be present.
► Do not cross connection lines and electric animal fence wires over high‑
voltage or communication lines.
► Avoid crossings with high‑voltage lines. If this cannot be avoided, the crossing
must be made below the power line at a 90° angle and as close as possible.
► Do not power an electric animal fence with two separate electric fence
energisers or from the independent fence circuits of the same energiser.
► Barbed wire or razor wire must not be electrified with an energiser.
► Non‑electrified barbed wire or razor wire may be used to support one or more
offset electrified wires of an electric animal fence. The electrified wires must
be kept at a vertical distance of at least 150 mm from the non‑electrified wires
by means of supports. Make sure that the non‑electrified wire is earthed at
regular intervals.
► There must be a minimum distance of 2.5 m between two separate electric
animal fences, which are powered by separate independently clocked electric
fence energisers. If there should be a physical barrier between the fences
then only use electrically non-conductive materials or an insulated metal
barrier.
► Ensure that all mains‑operated auxiliary equipment connected to the electric
animal fence has the same degree of insulation as the energiser used.
► Ensure that the auxiliary equipment is weatherproof. Outdoor use is only
permitted if it has been certified by the manufacturer and the equipment has
a minimum degree of protection of IPX4.

SAFETY DURING OPERATION

► Lightning can cause fires and lead to malfunctions on electric fences.
Separating the energiser from the fence and power source before a storm
or possible lightning strike can minimise the effects of lightning. Redirect the
current of the lightning strike to the ground before it damages the energiser
by installing a lightning rod between the fence and the energiser.
