Step 2. Install the Earth system
Buildings and gates for example, can become electried with fence voltages if the
energizer is improperly earthed.
Follow earthing instrucons carefully.
a) Install galvanised earth stakes into damp soil where possible:
M6000i - at least 12 x 2.1m (7),
M12000i - at least 24 x 2.1m (7).
In dry condions or in low mineral content soil more earth stakes may be
required. Earth stakes must be at least 3m (10) apart and at least 10m (33)
away from any mains cabling, telephone cabling, water pipes or building earth.
Do not connect the earth terminal to any building metal work or framing.
b) To aach the earth cable:
1. Using Underground Cable (G627) remove 5cm (2”) of plasc coang from
one end of the cable wire and connect to the green ( ) terminal on the
energizer.
2. Aach the cable to the earth system by removing 10cm (4”) of insulaon
from the cable at each Earth Stake (G879) and then clamp the exposed
wire to each stake using an Earth Clamp (G876).
3. Tighten the clamp.
For further instrucons on the earth (ground) system see the Gallagher Power
Fence™ Manual.
Note: Poor grounding can cause interference on telephone lines, radios and
televisions. This can be recognised by a clicking sound on telephones.
Reference Earth
An addional earth stake is required to measure the earth system performance.
a) Install a single galvanised stake (G878 / G879) at least 60cm (2) long, at least
10m (33) from the main energizer earth system and at least 10m (33) from
any mains cabling, telephone cabling, water pipes or building earth.
b) Using Underground Cable (G627) connect the reference earth stake to the
black ( ) terminal on the energizer.
