Installing the energizer indoors
The energizer must be installed indoors, (under cover) when being
powered by mains/line power.
Warning!
- Do not use a mains/line power extension lead.
- Allow 25 mm (1") of clear space around the power adaptor.
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.
4 If earth monitoring is desired, connect the Fence earth monitor
terminal (black) to a separate earth rod. For more information, see
Earth monitoring
on page 4.
5 Connect the Fence high energy terminal (red) or the Fence low
energy terminal (yellow) to the main farm fence.
6 If a lower energy output is required on a separate fence (e.g. house
fence, fence adjoining roadside), connect the Fence low energy
terminal (yellow) to this fence.
7 Connect the energizer to mains/line power using the mains/line
power adaptor provided. See
leads
on page 2.
Note: For information about using the Fence low energy terminal, see
Lowering the energy output
on page 7.
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!
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 installation,

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.

www.tru-testgroup.com
Warning!
Do not power the energizer with mains/line power if it is
being installed outdoors.
To install the energizer as part of a solar installation:
1 Select a suitable installation site. See
installation
on page 2. For solar installations, it is also important 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.
6 If earth monitoring is desired, connect the Fence earth monitor
terminal (black) to a separate earth rod. For more information, see
