TROUBLESHOOTING
Problem Causes Solu on
Energizer has started to
run slowly
The internal temperature of
the energizer is too high
Mount the energizer in a cool
area, out of direct sun and with
adequate ven la on.
Energizer doesn’t
operate
Energizer Off Switch ON
Break in supply circuit Test power point
Faulty energizer Have energizer repaired
Electric fence voltage
is below 3000V or your
stock are escaping
Faulty energizer Unplug the energizer from
the power supply and remove
the fence wire from the Red
terminal. Plug energizer in
again. Using a Digital Volt Meter
(G503) check the voltage across
the terminals. If the voltage is
less than 5000V, have energizer
repaired.
Inadequate earthing Improve the earth system by
adding more galvanised earth
stakes to the earth system un l
the earth voltage is 200V or
below.
Short on the fence line Check the electrical connec ons
are secure eg. from the fence to
the red terminal, from the earth
system to the green terminal,
at gates etc. Check the voltage
on the fence every 33m (100 )
using the Digital Volt Meter. 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 of wire on the
fence, heavy vegeta on growth,
cracked or broken insulators,
broken wires.
