CONNECT THE DEVICE TO THE ELECTRIC FENCE

N OTIC E
Make sure that the cables on the energiser unit are routed downwards to prevent
water from collecting at the connections.
1. Drive the supplied ground stake almost completely into the ground.
2. Remove the nut on the earth connection (7) of the energiser.
3. Connect the black cable to the earth connection (7) of the energiser and replace the nut on the
earth connection (7). Tighten the nut hand-tight.
4. Connect the other end to the earth rod. For proper grounding, refer to the tips in section 7.4.
5. Remove the nut on the fence connector (3) of the energiser.
6. Connect the red cable with fence connector (3) of the energiser and put the nut back on the
fence connector (3). Tighten the nut hand-tight.
7. Connect the other end to the fence.
The energiser is connected to the fence.

THE RIGHT GROUNDING

WAR N I N G AGAIN ST E LE CTRICA L VO LTAGES
»
Follow the safety instructions concerning location and installation when
grounding the fence (see section 2.2).
»
Maintain a distance of 10 m to other grounded systems (e.g. protective earthing
of the power supply system or the earthing of a telecommunications system).
»
To prevent possible damage, ensure that animals or other people cannot
access the grounding. However, the grounding must be accessible for any
maintenance tasks required.
It is extremely important that the fence is properly grounded. With optimal grounding, the energiser
can operate at its maximum capacity and ensure that your fence provides the best possible security.
∙
Where possible, select a damp area with vegetation for the grounding.
∙
Use galvanised metal posts for the grounding posts. They must be at least 75 cm long (e.g.
item no. 44219).
∙
If the soil is dry or if the fence is very long, install additional grounding posts at intervals of
about 2–3 m to improve the grounding. We recommend using the cable with item no. 33615 to
connect the grounding posts together.
Ti p for corre ct sp acin g
The following rule applies: length of grounding post + length of second grounding post =
min. distance between these two grounding posts (e.g.: grounding post 1 (0.75 m) + grounding
post 2 (1.5 m) = min. 2.25 m distance between the two grounding posts)

BUILDING THE FENCE

In addition to correct grounding, you need suitable conductor material and insulators for the ideal
electric fence. Conductor material has a low electrical resistance, which allows the current to flow
better. Insulators have a high electrical resistance and are used to hold or guide the conductor
material. Seek advice to find out which products are suitable for your purposes.
To ensure better conductivity of your fencing system, observe the following points:
∙
Keep your fence free of vegetation at all times. Do not run your fence through hedges and
prevent branches or bushes from closing the circuit. Overgrowth reduces the voltage of your
fence and the impact strength of the current pulse may no longer be strong enough.
