What are the benefits of an electric fence?
An electric fence has many benefits over conventional fencing:
• Requires less labour and material to construct than conventional fencing.
• Flexibility to change or add paddocks when required. The use of strip grazing techniques
can allow temporary fencing to be quickly and easily erected or removed.
• Controls a broader range of animals.
• Minimises damage to expensive livestock when compared with other fencing mechanisms,
for example barbed wire.

Installation

Read all of the safety instructions in this manual carefully before installing the energiser.
There are two types of energisers:
• Battery-only energisers
• Battery energisers with solar panels

Warning:
Before installing the energiser, ensure the energiser selector switch is switched off.
1. Select a suitable site for the energiser. For exterior installation, ensure that the energiser is
protected from animals and the environment. If necessary, house the energiser in a protec­
tive box. Consider site access, proximity to a suitable area for earthing and whether the
energiser is safe from human interference. Try to position the energiser as near as possible
to the centre of the electric fence.
2. Mount the energiser onto a wall, onto a post or inside a box. Use the template attached to
locate fixing points. For mounting onto a post use the post mounting slot at the back of the
energiser.
• Always mount the energiser in a hanging position above ground (do not operate
while laying on its back).
3. Connect the energiser fence output terminal (red) to the
fence.
4. Connect the energiser fence earth terminal (green) to the
earth stake
5. To by­pass longer distances use insulated high voltage
cable.
