SELECTING THE LOCATION FOR THE SOLAR SHOCK SYSTEM

Select a location that will allow the solar module to collect the maximum amount of sunlight

that is available on a clear day. An ideal location would allow the module to point directly at the

sun at noontime each day of the year. As a general rule, modules used in the northern hemi-

sphere should be faced due south (not magnetic south). Modules used in the southern hemi-

sphere should be faced due north (not magnetic north). The location site should be free of any

objects such as trees, that would block the sunlight from the solar module. See Illustration 1.

PROPER GROUNDING

Most fence problems are caused by poor grounding. Proper grounding is an absolute must if

your system is to work correctly. A ground rod should be copper, galvanized pipe or a steel rod driv-

en 6–8 feet (1.8–2.4 m) into permanently wet earth. The fence energizer will work more efficiently if

the ground rod is driven to a point where moisture is constant. Never use an existing ground rod that

is hooked up to other electrical systems or to a water pipe. To connect wire to a ground rod, use a

ground clamp that is mechanically secured to the ground rod. See Illustration 1.

TYPICAL ELECTRIC FENCE DESIGN

1. The design is simple and usually consists of wood, steel or aluminum posts fitted with Fi-

Shock insulators and threaded with a single strand of wire. (See Illustration 2). Spacing

between posts may vary at your discretion, but be sure the wire is always taut and never

allowed to sag excessively. Rule of thumb: space posts 12–25 feet (3.7–7.6 m) apart.

2. The earth is half your fence—so if your grounding rod is not satisfactory, you will have a poor

working fence. For best results, drive a 6-foot (1.8 m) steel rod, galvanized pipe or copper rod

into the earth. This grounding rod doesn't have to be next to the fencer, but can be located

nearby, preferably in a low, wet spot. This assures better grounding.

3. In dry or sandy soil areas it may be necessary to run a ground wire just below the "hot" wire.

This ensures proper "shock" if animal contacts both wires. In other words, some types of earth
