Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by qualified personnel familiar with electric fence systems and applicable local agricultural or electrical codes. Disconnect and isolate the battery before making any wiring connections to the charger. Ensure the fence line is clear of vegetation and short circuits before energizing, as ground faults will reduce effective output. Mount the unit in a sheltered but ventilated location to protect against direct water ingress while allowing airflow around the housing.
