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 instructions carefully.
a) Install galvanised earth stakes into damp soil where possible:
M6000i - at least 12 x 2.1m (7ft),
M12000i - at least 24 x 2.1m (7ft).
In dry conditions or in low mineral content soil more earth stakes may be
required. Earth stakes must be at least 3m (10ft) apart and at least 10m (33ft)
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 attach the earth cable:
1. Using Underground Cable (G627) remove 5cm (2") of plastic coating from
one end of the cable wire and connect to the green (
energizer.
2. Attach the cable to the earth system by removing 10cm (4") of insulation
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 instructions 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
Reference Earth
An additional earth stake is required to measure the earth system performance.
a) Install a single galvanised stake (G878 / G879) at least 60cm (2ft) long, at least
10m (33ft) from the main energizer earth system and at least 10m (33ft) from
any mains cabling, telephone cabling, water pipes or building earth.
b) Using Underground Cable (G627) connect the reference earth stake to the
black ( ) terminal on the energizer.
