IMPORTANT INFORMATION

WARNING: Read all instructions
• Electric fences should be installed and operated so that they cause no electrical hazard to persons, animals or
their surroundings.
• Electric fence constructions which are likely to lead to the entanglement of animals or persons should be
avoided.
• In areas of public access, use an electric fence warning sign (G6020) every 10m (33ft) to identify the electrified
wire(s).
• Check your local ordinance for specific regulations.
• Crossing with overhead powerlines should be avoided wherever possible. If such a crossing cannot be avoided, it
should be made underneath the powerline and as nearly as possible to right angles.
• If connecting leads and electric fence wires are installed near an overhead power line, the clearances should be
not less than those shown below:
Minimum clearances from power lines
Less than or equal to 1 000
Greater than 1 000 and less than or equal to 33 000
Greater than 33 000
• If connecting leads and electric fence wires are installed near an overhead power line, their height above the
ground should not exceed 2m.
This height applies either side of the orthogonal projection of the outermost conductors of the power line on the
ground surface, for a distance of:
• 2 m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage not exceeding 1 000 V;
• 15 m for power lines operating at a nominal voltage exceeding 1 000 V
• Fence wiring should be installed well away from any telephone or telegraph line or radio aerial.
• An electric fence should not be supplied from two different energizers or from independent fence circuits of the
same energizer.
• For any two different electric fences, each supplied from a different energizer independently timed, the distance
between the wires of the two electric fences should be at least 2m. If this gap is to be closed, this should be
effected by means of electrically non-conductive material or an isolated metal barrier.
• Do not use more than one Energizer on the same fence line at one time.
• Do not electrify barbed or Razor wire in an electric fence.
WARNING: Risk of Electric Shock. Do not connect the Energizer to a fence and to any other device such as
a cattle trainer or a poultry trainer. Otherwise, lightning striking your fence will be conducted to all other
devices.
• Do not install an earth (ground) system for your Power Fence within 10m (33ft) of any utilities type ground
system.
• Except for low output battery operated energizers, the energizer earth electrode should penetrate the ground to
a depth of at least 1m.
• Use lead-out cable in buildings and where soil could corrode exposed galvanised wire. Do not use household
electrical cable.
• Connecting leads that are run underground should be run in a conduit of insulating material or else insulated
high voltage cable should be used. Care should be taken to avoid damage to the connecting leads due to the
effects of animal hooves or tractor wheels sinking into the ground.
• Refer servicing to qualified Gallagher service personnel.
• Do not place combustible materials near the fence or Energizer connections. In times of extreme fire risk,
disconnect Energizer.
