Datamars Unigizer 15 J Guía De Instalación Y Uso página 13

For detailed instructions on using the remote control
handset, refer to the user manual supplied with the handset.
WARNING!
The energizer will reactivate following a
power failure, even if it was switched off by a remote
control handset before the power failure. The fence
should be regarded as live at all times, regardless of the
energizer switch position or the remote control status. If
you are working on a section of fence, isolate the section
with a cut-out switch, or disconnect the energizer from its
power source.
Building a permanent
electric fence
Components of an electric fence
An electric fence system comprises the following elements:
An energizer.
•
An earth system. This comprises a number of metal rods
•
inserted into the ground, which are connected to the
Fence earth terminal on the energizer.
Insulated underground cables.
•
in insulated plastic, suitable for use underground or
going through walls. Used to connect the energizer to
the earth and fence.
An insulated fence.
Connected to the Fence output
•
terminal of the energizer. Fences can be made to a
variety of designs (see below).
Other useful components that can be added:
Cut-out switches. Installed at regular intervals,
these allow you to isolate sections of the fence for
repair.
Lightning diverter kit. Used to minimise the
damage to your energizer from lightning
conducted down the fence line.
Electric fence wire coated
Typical installation
The animal receives a shock when it completes a circuit
between the fence and the earth system. The fence below
has all live wires and requires conductive soils. This type of
fence is often referred to as an 'all-live' or 'earth-return'
fence.
Alternative installation
For poor conductivity soils (dry or sandy), a 'fence-return' or
'earth-wire-return' system is recommended. With this type of
fence, the Fence earth terminal is connected directly to at
least one non-electrified fence wire (earth wire). The animal
gets maximum shock from touching a live wire and an earth
wire at the same time.
Lowering the energy output
In some areas, it may be desirable to lower the energy
output, for example where there is likely to be unsupervised
children who will be unaware of the dangers of electric
fencing (e.g. around a house or next to a public roadway).
If the Fence low energy terminal (yellow) is used, the output
energy will not exceed 1.5 J, however the output voltage
remains the same.
There are several possible configurations when using the
Fence low energy terminal (yellow):
The Fence low energy terminal (yellow) can be used as
•
an alternative to the Fence high energy terminal (red) on
any fence. In this case, the fence will receive lower
output energy.
The Fence low energy terminal (yellow) can be used to
•
supply a separate fence (e.g. house fence or roadside
fence) while the Fence high energy terminal (red) is
