Investing in Gallagher products allows you to keep your livestock safe. Keep your fences working at maximum efficiency. If you encounter issues with your electric fence, follow this quick checklist:
Step 1: Check the Energizer Output
- Use a Gallagher Digital Volt Meter to test the energizer’s direct output.
- If voltage is low, inspect the power supply and settings.
Step 2: Test the Grounding System
- Use a voltmeter near the grounding rods. If the reading is high, install additional Gallagher grounding rods.
Step 3: Look for Vegetation Interference
- Trim weeds and remove obstacles touching the fence.
Step 4: Inspect Wire Connections
- Ensure all wires are tightly secured using Gallagher Electric Fence Wire and Insulators.
Step 5: Monitor Performance During Seasonal Changes
- In dry months, moisten the ground around your Gallagher grounding rods to maintain effectiveness.
