Product Information

Full details

This Electric Fence Tester is designed for farmers, landowners, and anyone maintaining electric fencing. Its key benefit is providing a clear, immediate reading of voltage to ensure fence efficiency and safety. A potential caveat is its 7000V capacity, which may not be suitable for extremely high-output systems. This device helps you diagnose faults, confirm power is disconnected for maintenance, and verify your fence is operating correctly by displaying the current running through the wire via bright indicator lights. It requires no external power source, making it a simple, portable solution.
