What voltage is required to control animals?
4 kV is widely accepted as an adequate voltage to control
animals. However, you also require a well constructed fence
system to ensure that animals cannot push through
electrified wires.
The fence voltage is below 4 kV. How do I increase the voltage?
Check the energizer.
Ensure that the energizer is on and set
to operate at full power. Disconnect the fence wire from the
energizer's fence output terminal. Measure the voltage
across the energizer terminals using a Fault Finder, Digital
Voltmeter or a remote control handset. If the voltage is less
than 6 kV, the energizer may require servicing.
Check the energizer earthing.

Check the fence system for faults.
of low voltage is faults on the fence line.
If the fence, earth and energizer are in good condition and
the voltage is still below 4 kV, talk to your nearest reseller.
Recent extensions to your fence, a poor fence layout, or soil
conditions may be causing inadequate voltage.
How do I locate faults?
The recommended tool for locating faults is a Fault Finder or
remote control handset. These have a combined voltage and
current meter which allows you to rapidly locate sources of
current leakage. Alternatively, use a Digital Voltmeter. Use
cut-out switches to turn off the power to different sections of
the farm. If the voltage on the fence increases when a
section of the farm is turned off, then investigate that section
for possible faults.
There are no lights flashing on the energizer
Ensure the power supply is on. Check the fence system for
faults (see above). Check the energizer (see above). If the
energizer still does not operate, it may require servicing.
The energizer does not respond to commands from the remote
control handset
See the Frequently Asked Questions/Troubleshooting section
in the remote control handset's user manual.

If you have a remote control handset, see the remote control
handset's user manual for instructions. If not, take the
energizer to an authorised service centre to have the feature
disabled.
