To install the energizer indoors:
1
Select a suitable installation site. See
installation
on page 2.
2
Mount the energizer on a wall 1.7 m (5'6") above ground level.
Use the template printed on the back cover of this manual, if
required.
3
Connect the Fence earth terminal (green) to the energizer earth
system.
12000i, X12i, 412i, 6000i, X6i and 406i:
4
desired, connect the Fence earth monitor terminal (black) to a
separate earth rod. For more information, see
page 4.
5
Connect the Fence full voltage terminal (red) or the Fence half
voltage terminal (yellow) to the fence.
6
Connect the energizer to mains/line power using the mains/line
power adaptor provided. See
leads
on page 2.

Note:
If the energizer is being installed indoors, it may be powered by
a battery instead of mains/line power, if required.
Warning!
If using a battery to power an energizer that is installed
indoors, ensure that there is adequate ventilation to allow battery
gases to disperse.
Installing the energizer outdoors
The energizer may be installed outdoors, powered by a battery.
Warning!
USA/Canada - Refer to
Class 2 power units (USA/Canada only)
countries - Do not power the energizer with mains/line power if it is
being installed outdoors.
To install the energizer outdoors:
1
Select a suitable installation site. See
installation
on page 2.
2
Mount the energizer on a post. Use the template printed on the
back cover of this manual, if required.

Installing the energizer as part of a solar installation
The energizer may be installed with solar panels as part of a solar
installation.
A solar installation consists of these items:
The energizer
•
A battery (or battery bank)
•
One or more solar panels
•
An energizer earth system.
•
For information about the type of batteries to use for a solar
Battery selection for a solar installation
installation, see
The required power rating of the solar panel(s) depends upon the local
conditions. For help with positioning your solar panel correctly, see the
supplier of your solar panel and refer to your local meteorological
service. For more information about solar installations, refer to
www.tru-test.com.
Warning!
Do not power the energizer with mains/line power if it is
being installed outdoors. USA/Canada - Refer to
instructions for Class 2 power units (USA/Canada only)
To install the energizer as part of a solar installation:
1
Select a suitable installation site. See
installation
to select a site where the solar panel(s) will not be subject to
shading from the sun at any time.
2
Face the solar panel towards true north in the southern
hemisphere and true south in the northern hemisphere.
3
Tilt the panel so that it faces directly on to the mid-winter midday
sun. If necessary, to increase efficiency, adjust the tilt angle at
different times of the year.
4
When the solar panel is positioned correctly, attach the energizer
to the rear of the panel. Alternatively, mount the energizer on a
fence post. Use the template printed on the back cover of this
manual, if required.
5
Connect the Fence earth terminal (green) to the energizer earth
system.
