Earth System Voltage and Alarm
View the earth system performance by pressing the navigaon buons (< or >) while
the energizer is operang unl the zone indicaon arrow ( ) is highlighng the
earth zone ( ). The earth voltage will be displayed if a reference earth stake is
installed. If there is no reference earth it will display 0.0KV. If the earth voltage rises
above the earth alarm level (default 0.5KV) the status LED will ash red, the earth
zone indicator will be highlighted and the internal buzzer will sound on the energizer.
The buzzer can be muted by pressing any key on the controller.
See Adjusng / Turning O Alarms (p.16) to adjust or turn o the earth system alarm.
Tesng the earth system
a) Turn the energizer o. At least 40m (130) along the fence line drive a steel
stake into damp soil and connect it to the fence wire.
b) Turn the energizer on and wait 30 seconds. Check the earth system voltage
using the navigaon keys. The earth voltage should be 0.2 – 0.3KV or less. If
it is higher add earth stakes unl 0.2-0.3KV is achieved. In dry condions or
areas with low mineral content soil an earth return system may be required as
described in the Gallagher Power Fence™ Manual or visit www.gallagher.com.

The voltage is too low and may not be an
eecve deterrent. The current is above the
alarm limit represenng more power loss.
A card is included with your energizer to allow you to record fence voltage and
current. Do this when your fence is operang well and store the card by the
energizer. This will greatly assist with fault nding.
