Garden & Pond kit M10 Roadmap
Planning
Proper preparation is important. First make a sketch of your fence and determine whether you have enough
materials to make the fence. Follow the steps below for a fast and successful installation of your electric fence.
Contents of the kit
(A) 1 pc. Electric fence device M10
(B) 10 pcs. Plastic fence posts (terra)
(C) 25 pcs. Ring insulators
(D) 1 roll 100m Vidoflex (conductive) wire (green)
(E) 1 pc. Earth pin 0.5 meter including 3 meter cable.
(F) 1 pc. Fence connection cable with clip and ring eye
(G) 1 pc. Warning sign
(H) 4 pcs. Vidoflex connector
Determine the type of fence
We distinguish two types of electric fencing,
It
’s important to know that a shock is only felt when the animal touches the earth at the same time as it
touches the electric fence, as this completes the circuit.
1. The basic system:
This system is easy to build with (plastic or wooden) posts that are placed in the earth.
The wires in the fence are connected to the electric fence device thanks to a fence connection cable. The
earthing device is grounded thanks to an earth pin in the ground.
With simultaneous contact of the wire and the ground underneath, the circuit is closed and a shock will be felt.
For the explanation of this type of installation, go to:
Part 1
– Electric fence for garden, yard, ponds or around the aviary
in this manual.
2. A plus/minus system:
This
system is needed when the wire in the fence is placed at a higher height, such as a fence on a barrier,
wall or in the gutter.
If you place a wire over a fence, an extra wire will always have to be placed for grounding, also known as the
Plus/Minus system.
In such a system, the wires in the fence are connected alternately directly to the electric fence device. The
placement of an earth pin
isn’t necessary in such a system.
As soon as at least one plus and one minus wire are touched simultaneously, the circuit will be closed and a
shock will be felt.
For the installation explanation of such a system goes to:
Part 2
– Electric plus/minus fence on (garden) barrier or wall
3. A combination of both systems:
A combination of both systems is also possible, of course, follow both the instructions in part 1 and the
instructions in part 2 of this step-by-step plan.
