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 1-888-430-3330 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.
