If you have any difficulty diagnosing why your fence voltage or grounding is not as it should be, please do not hesitate to call us at 03 8727 6244 and let us help you solve the problem.

Loss of Tension: If you detect a loss in tension, check the following:

  • A post may have moved at a corner, end or gate.
  • A copper split bolt connector may have slipped and needs to be tightened.
  • Broken insulator.

Installing an ElectroBraid Fence Minder

Your ElectroBraid Fence Minder™ will continuously check to make sure your fence is fully energizer. It will warn you, day or night, if it detects a significant voltage drop. If a horse is in contact with your fence for more than three seconds, your Fence Minder™ will shut off your energizer to stop further electric shocks; and immediately alert you by siren and/or by auto-dialling your pre-programmed phone numbers.

If the contact between horse and fence is less than three seconds, the Fence Minder™ will not signal an alarm. Also, it is programmed so that neither rain nor snow should cause a false alarm.

If the fence voltage drops gradually below a pre-set minimum, the Fence Minder™ will alarm but not turn off the power. Such a voltage drop may be the result of electrical shorts along the fence line.

Provided you verify your fence is properly grounded, and regularly check your voltage with a digital voltmeter, your Fence Minder™ will give you the peace of mind of knowing that your ElectroBraid™ fence is keeping your horses safe.

Your Fence Minder™ can be powered by mains power (120 volts AC/60 Hz) or by battery or solar power (8-16 volts DC). Alarm devices are connected as accessories. The siren can be wired for continuous or intermittent signally, to conform to local noise pollution bylaws. A telephone auto-dialler can also be connected. It comes with its own Operating Manual.
