Connect the Wires to the Fence
Transmitter (Australia & New Zealand)
Ground Wire (4C)
Proper grounding, although not necessary for the system to work,
will help reduce the chance of electrical surges causing damage to
your Fence Transmitter and/or Power Adapter. To ground your unit,
you will need a stranded 10 gauge insulated copper wire and a UL
approved grounding clamp to connect the wire to the grounding rod
located at your electrical power service entrance. These items may be
obtained at most local hardware or electrical supply stores. Connect
one end of the Ground Wire to the Ground Terminal located on
the Fence Transmitter and the other end of the Ground Wire to the
grounding rod located at the electrical power service entrance to
your home. This grounding rod is normally located below the electric
meter mounted on your home. Secure the wire to the grounding rod
using the UL approved grounding clamp.
Fuse Protection (4D)
The Fence Transmitter is also equipped with a 250 volt, 1 amp
fuse to protect the unit’s electronic circuitry from electrical power
surges. To locate the fuse, slide off the lid on the back of the Fence
Transmitter. A spare fuse is also provided.

WARNING
Do not install, connect, or remove your system during a lightning storm. If the storm is •
close enough for you to hear thunder, it is close enough to create hazardous surges.
Risk of electric shock. Use the Fence Transmitter indoors in dry location only.•
CAUTION
If possible, DO NOT use an AC circuit protected with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI) or Residual Current Device (RCD). In rare cases, nearby lightning strikes may
cause the GFCI or RCD to trip. Without power your dog may be vulnerable to escape.
You will have to reset the GFCI or RCD to restore power to the system.
NOTICE
For added protection, when unused for long periods of time or prior to thunderstorms,
unplug from the wall outlet and disconnect the loop boundary wires. This will prevent
damage to the transmitter due to surges.
