Heat build‑up may result in smouldering. The device must not be covered by
materials etc. during operation as this may lead to a build‑up of heat and possibly
to a fire. Therefore, do not install the device in areas where there is a risk of fire
(e.g. hay and straw stores).

Do not use multimeters to check the voltage. These are not suitable for the high
voltages generated by the electric fence energiser. Use specialist voltmeters, such
as type 44700 or 44876, to test the voltage.

THE RIGHT GROUNDING

WA RN I N G AGA IN ST E LE CTR ICAL VO LTAGES
»
Follow the safety instructions concerning location and installation when
grounding the fence (see section 2.2).
»
Maintain a distance of 10 m to other grounded systems (e.g. protective earthing
of the power supply system or the earthing of a telecommunications system).
»
To prevent possible damage, ensure that animals or other people cannot
access the grounding. However, the grounding must be accessible for any
maintenance tasks required.
It is extremely important that the fence is properly grounded. With optimal grounding, the energiser
can operate at its maximum capacity and ensure that your fence provides the best possible security.
∙
Where possible, select a damp area with vegetation for the grounding.
∙
Use galvanised metal posts for the grounding posts. They must be at least 75 cm long (e.g.
item no. 44219).
∙
If the soil is dry or if the fence is very long, install additional grounding posts at intervals of
about 2–3 m to improve the grounding. We recommend using the cable with item no. 33615 to
connect the grounding posts together.
Tip for corre ct sp acin g
The following rule applies: length of grounding post + length of second grounding post =
min. distance between these two grounding posts (e.g.: grounding post 1 (0.75 m) + grounding
post 2 (1.5 m) = min. 2.25 m distance between the two grounding posts)
