Frequently asked questions/Troubleshooting
What voltage is required to control animals?
4 kV is widely accepted as the recommended minimum voltage to control animals. However, you
also require a well-constructed fence system to ensure that animals cannot push through electrified
wires.
The fence voltage is below 4 kV. How do I increase the voltage?
Check the energiser. Disconnect the fence wire from the energiser's fence output terminal.
Measure the voltage across the energiser terminals with a Fault Finder or Digital Voltmeter. If the
voltage is less than 6 kV, the energiser may require servicing.
Check the energiser earthing. For information, visit the website.
Check the fence system for faults. The most common source of low voltage is faults on the fence
line.
If the fence, earth and energiser are in good condition and the voltage is still below 4 kV, talk to
your nearest reseller. Recent extensions to your fence, a poor fence layout, or soil conditions may
be causing inadequate voltage.
How do I locate faults?
The recommended tool for locating faults is a Fault Finder. This combined voltage and
current meter allows you to rapidly locate sources of current leakage. Alternatively, use a Digital
Voltmeter. Use cut-out switches to turn off the power to different sections of the farm. If the voltage
on the fence increases when a section of the farm is turned off, then investigate that section for
possible faults.
There are no lights flashing on the energiser.
Ensure the power supply is on. Check the fence system for faults (see above). Check the energiser
(see above). If the energiser still does not operate, it may require servicing.
