Causes
The internal
temperature of the
energizer is too high
Sudden load change
on the fence.
Energizer Off
Break in supply circuit
Faulty energizer
Faulty energizer
Inadequate earthing
Short on the fence
line
Solu on
Mount the energizer in a cool area,
out of direct sun and with adequate
ven la on.
Wait 10 minutes or restart Energizer.
Switch ON
Test power point
Have energizer repaired
Unplug the energizer from the power
supply and remove the fence wire from
the Red terminal. Plug energizer in
again. Using a Digital Volt Meter (G503)
check the voltage across the terminals.
If the voltage is less than 5000V, have
energizer repaired.
Improve the earth system by adding
more galvanised earth stakes to the
earth system un l the earth voltage is
200V or below.
Check the electrical connec ons are
secure eg. from the fence to the red
terminal, from the earth system to the
green terminal, at gates etc. Check the
voltage on the fence every 33m (100 )
using the Digital Volt Meter. Note if
the voltage is dropping. The closer to a
fault, the lower the voltage reading will
be. Become aware of things that cause
faults and always be on the lookout
for: stray pieces of wire on the fence,
heavy vegeta on growth, cracked or
broken insulators, broken wires.
