IMPORTANT INFORMATION
WARNING: Read all instrucons
• Warning: This appliance is not intended for use by persons
(including children) with reduced physical, sensory or mental
capabilies, or lack of experience and knowledge, unless they
have been given supervision or instrucon concerning use of
the appliance by a person responsible for their safety.
•Young children should be supervised to ensure that they do not
play with the appliance.
•Regularly inspect the supply cord, cables, wires and energizer
for any damage. If found damaged in any way, immediately
cease use of the energizer and return it to a Gallagher
Authorised Service Centre for repair in order to avoid a hazard.
• Energizer must be installed in a shelter and the supply cord
must not be handled when the ambient temperature is below
+5 deg C.
•Europe only - Time delayed electric fence energizer:
This me delayed electric fence energizer has a
delay me of 20 seconds aer a change in load
on the fence, before it can increase its maximum
output energy.
Warning: The energizer must wait 20 seconds aer power
up to be in normal operaon. A sudden increase in load is
indicated by a slow pulse rate, an internal buzzer and solid
red on the Fence Fault LED, for 10 minutes or unl the load is
removed.
• It is recommended that, in all areas where there is a likely presence of unsupervised children who
will be unaware of the dangers of electric fencing, that a suitably rated current liming device
having a resistance of not less than 500 ohms be connected between the energizer and the electric
fence in this area.
•Check your local council for specific regulaons.
•Fence wiring should be installed well away from any telephone or telegraph line or radio aerial.
•Well maintained electric fences kept clear of vegetaon with high quality insulaon are extremely
unlikely to cause fires. In mes of extreme fire risk, disconnect energizer.
•Do not mount in places exposed to heat sources (e.g. a sun heated metal wall.)
•Refer servicing and replacement baeries to a Gallagher Authorised Service Centre.
•Do not connect two Energizers to the same earth system.
•If connected to a mains power circuit that doesn’t have a Residual Current Device (RCD), then a
plug-in RCD should always be used.

Important Informaon
• Ensure the Energizer is fully protected from rain, condensaon and other sources of moisture.
• Electric animal fences and their ancillary equipment shall be installed, operated and maintained in a
manner that minimizes danger to persons, animals or their surroundings.
• Do NOT become entangled in the fence. Avoid electric fence construcons that are likely to lead to
the entanglement of animals or persons.
• WARNING - INSTALLERS /USERS SHOULD NOTE:
Avoid contacng the fence with the head, mouth, neck or
torso. Do not climb over, through or under a mul-wire electric
fence. Use a gate or a specially designed crossing point.
• An electric animal fence shall not be supplied from two separate energizers or from independent
fence circuits of the same energizer.
• For any two separate electric animal fences, each supplied from a separate energizer independently
med, the distance between the wires of the two electric animal fences shall be at least 2.5m. If
this gap is to be closed, this shall be effected by means of electrically non-conducve material or an
isolated metal barrier.
• Barbed wire or razor wire shall not be electrified by an energizer.
• A non-electrified fence incorporang barbed wire or razor wire may be used to support one or more
off-set electrified wires of an electric animal fence. The supporng devices for the electrified wires
shall be constructed so as to ensure that these wires are posioned at a minimum distance of 150
mm from the vercal plane of the non-electrified wires. The barbed wire and razor wire shall be
earthed at regular intervals.
• Follow the energizer manufacturer’s recommendaons regarding earthing.
• A distance of at least 10 m (33 ) shall be be maintaned between the energizer earth electrode and
any other earthing system connected pasrts such as the power suplly system protecve earth or
telecommunicaons system earth.
• Connecng leads that are run inside buildings shall be effecvely insulated from the earther
structural parts of the building. This may be achieved by using insulated high voltage cable.
• Connecng leads that are run underground shall be run in conduit of insulang material or else
insulated high voltage lead-out cable shall be used. Care must be taken to avoid damage to the
connecng leads due to the effects of animal hooves or tractor wheels sinking into the ground.
• Connecng leads shall not be installed in the same conduit as the mains supply wiring,
communicaon cables or data cables.
• Connecng leads and electric animal fence wires shall not cross above overhead power or
communicaon lines.
• Crossings with overhead power lines shall be avoided wherever possible. If such a crossing cannot
be avoided it shall be made underneath the power line and as nearly as possible at right angles to it.
• If connecng leads and electric animal fence wires are installed near an overhead power line, the
clearances shall not be less than those shown in the table following.
Minimum clearances from power lines for electric animal fences
Power line Voltage V Clearance m

Important Informaon
• Electric animal fences intended for deterring birds, household pet containment or training animals
such as cows need only be supplied from low output energizers to obtain sasfactory and safe
performance.
• In electric animal fences intended for deterring birds from roosng on buildings, no electric fence
wire shall be connected to the energizer earth electrode. A warning sign shall be fied to every
point where persons may gain ready access to the conductors.
• Fence wiring should be installed well away from any telephone or telegraph line or radio aerial.
• Where an electric animal fence crosses a public pathway, a non-electrified gate shall be
incorporated in the electric animal fence at that point or a crossing by means of sles shall be
provided. At any such crossing, the adjacent electrified wires shall carry warning signs.
• Any part of an electric animal fence that is installed along a public road or pathway shall be
idenfied by electric fence warning signs (G6020) at regular intervals that are securely fastened to
the fence posts or firmly clamped to the fence wires.
• The size of the warning sign shall be at least 100mm x 200mm.
• The background colour of both sides of the warning sign shall
be yellow. The inscripon on the sign shall be black and shall
be either:
-the substance of “CAUTION: Electric Fence” or,
-the symbol shown:
• The inscripon shall be indelible, inscribed on both sides of
the warning sign and have a height of at least 25mm.
• Ensure that all mains operated, ancillary equipment
connected to the electric animal fence circuit provides a
degree of isolaon between the fence circuit and the supply mains equivalent to that provided by
the energizer.
• Protecon from the weather shall be provided for the ancillary equipment unless this equipment is
cerfied by the manufacturer as being suitable for use outdoors, and is of a type with a minimum

HOW THE ENERGIZER WORKS
The energizer sends electrical pulses along the fence line, about one second apart.
These pulses give the animal a short, sharp, but safe shock. The shock doesn’t harm
the animal. It is sufficiently memorable that the animal never forgets the shock, and
will avoid the fence.
Practical Hints
• Check your local ordinance on fencing laws: local laws may require a permit
before use.
• Check the fence periodically. Remove any fallen branches, weeds or shrubs
because these will cause the fence to short out and will reduce animal control.
• All animals need me to learn to respect the fence. It may take several days to
train the animal and the fence may require minor adjustments.
• Animals that are prone to jumping may be difficult to confine. You may need to
try different fence heights to determine the best height.
• Use top quality insulators: low quality or cracked insulators and plasc tubing
are not recommended because they will cause shorng.
• Use joint clamps on all steel wire connecons to ensure a high quality circuit.
• This energizer must be earthed using galvanised metal earth stakes to ensure
the electric fence works correctly.
• Double Insulated Cable should be used in buildings, under gateways and where
soil could corrode exposed galvanised wire. Never use household electrical
cable. It is made for a maximum of 600 volts and will leak electricity.
• On permanent power fencing, use high tensile 12.5 gauge (2.5 mm) wire.

INSTALLATION GUIDE
Step 1. Install the Energizer
Mount the energizer on a wall, under cover and
out of reach of children. Install where there is no
risk of the energizer incurring fire or mechanical
damage and if possible away from heavy electrical
equipment eg. pumps or other items that may
cause electrical interference.
a) Using the template on the back page, drill 2 x
4mm (5/32”) holes (A & B).
b) Fix the screws provided into the wall leaving the head of
the screw about 3mm (1/8”) out from the wall.
c) Place the energizer over and slide down onto the
mounng screws.
Step 2. Install the Earth system
Buildings and gates for example, can become electrified with
fence voltages if the energizer is improperly earthed.
Follow earthing instrucons carefully.
a) Install at least 3 x 2m (6) galvanised earth stakes into damp soil where
possible. In dry condions or in low mineral content soil more earth stakes
may be required. Earth stakes must be at least 3m (10) apart and at least
10m (33) away from any mains cabling, telephone cabling, water pipes or
building earth. Do not connect the earth terminal to any building metal work
or framing.
b) To aach the earth cable:
1. Using Underground Cable (G627) remove 5cm (2”) of plasc coang from
one end of the cable wire and connect to the green ( ) terminal on the
energizer.
2. Aach the cable to the earth system by removing 10cm (4”) of insulaon
from the cable at each Earth Stake (G879) and then clamp the exposed
wire to each stake using an Earth Clamp (G876).
3. Tighten the clamp.
For further instrucons on the earth (ground) system see the Gallagher Power
Fence™ Manual.
Note: Poor grounding can cause interference on telephone lines, radios and
televisions. This can be recognised by a clicking sound on telephones.

Step 3. Connect the fence
a) Connect the energizer’s red output ( ) terminal to the fence using
Underground Cable (G627). Remove 5cm (2”) of plasc coang from one end
of the cable. Unscrew the red (FENCE) terminal and insert the wire through the
terminal slot. Screw the terminal closed, ensuring the wire is firmly clamped.
b) Aach the other end of the cable to the fence using a Joint Clamp (G603).
