Electric Fence Testers

This section shows the electric fence testers that Agri-Supply UK have available. Generally with electric fencing testers there are 2 types, LED and Digital. LED fence testers provide a simple and cost effective solution to testing your electric fence giving you an approximate reading of the fence voltage. If you are looking for a more accurate reading digital fence tester give more defintive reading allowing you pinpoint your fence voltage to within 100v. If you are erecting an electric fence or already have one in place a fence tester is an essential tool to maintaining your fence to make sure it is performing how it should be.

An electric fence tester is a device used to measure the voltage of an electric fence. It is an important tool for ensuring that the fence is operating properly and providing an adequate shock to deter animals from crossing it. Electric fence testers come in a variety of styles, but they all work on the same basic principle.

Here are some of the most common types of electric fence testers:

• Neon testers: These are the simplest type of tester and consist of a neon bulb that lights up when it is touched to the fence. The intensity of the light is proportional to the voltage of the fence.
• LED testers: These testers are similar to neon testers, but they use LEDs instead of a neon bulb. LEDs are more energy-efficient than neon bulbs and they also provide a wider range of colors, which can be helpful for indicating different voltage levels.
• Digital testers: These testers are the most accurate type and they display the voltage of the fence on a digital screen. Some digital testers also have other features, such as a built-in buzzer that will sound if the voltage is too low.

When using an electric fence tester, it is important to touch the probe to the fence wire and then to a ground stake. This will complete the circuit and allow the tester to measure the voltage. Be sure to follow the manufacturer's instructions for your specific tester.

It is important to use an electric fence tester regularly to ensure that your fence is operating properly. A weak fence will not be effective in deterring animals, and it could also be a safety hazard. If you find that your fence is not working properly, you should contact a qualified electrician to have it repaired.
