How It Works

The Wire Break Locator is designed to find complete breaks in your boundary wire. It is not designed
to detect partial wire breaks.
The transmitter sends 2 unique signals to the boundary wires that are connected to it. One boundary
wire receives a continuous low frequency signal and the other boundary wire receives an intermittent
high signal.
A portable locator is used to hear these signals as tones. A break in the wire is detected when the tones
change or disappear. The red and green lights on the locator visually assist you with determining which
tone you are hearing, even if the environment is noisy. The green light indicates the continuous tone,
and the red light indicates the intermittent tone.

When to Use the Wire Break Locator

• Use the Wire Break Locator when there is a wire break indication on the fence transmitter.

Common Locations of Wire Breaks

Please inspect these areas for signs of damage.
Wire breaks are commonly found:
• At the wire exit point of the house
• Where the wire enters the ground from the house, usually caused by string trimmers
• Where the wires cross sidewalks or driveways, usually caused by edging and string trimmers
• Around landscaping and flower beds, usually caused by digging, or working up the soil
• In aerated lawns
• At wire splices where gel-filled capsules have not been installed
• At wire splices without reinforcement knots

Before You Begin

• For proper electrical grounding, the ground must be wet. Several gallons/liters of water may need
to be poured around the grounding stakes in order to moisten dry ground.
• It is acceptable to repair solid boundary wire with stranded boundary wire, or to repair stranded
boundary wire with solid boundary wire, but the same gauge (wire thickness)—such as 20 gauge
wire—must be used with both types of wire.
• Aerated lawns can cut the wire into small sections. It may be easier to replace a long length of wire
instead of small sections.
