The Micro 3 mounting post doubles as a reliable earth stake, crafted from durable hardened steel with a unique clamp design for easy installation and removal. Essential for effective electric fencing, this post ensures a robust grounding system, helping your fence deliver the correct shock to animals. Without a proper earth, animals may experience only a mild shock—or none at all.
Key Features & Benefits:
-
Dual Purpose: Functions as both a mounting post and an earth stake.
-
Durable Steel Construction: Hardened steel ensures long-lasting outdoor use.
-
Easy Setup: Unique clamp design simplifies installation and removal.
-
Effective Grounding: Provides a secure earth connection for optimal fence performance.
Installation Guidelines:
-
Install in moist ground for maximum conductivity.
-
Keep at least 15m distance from domestic earth systems.
-
Follow the 1m of earth rod per joule guideline for higher-powered energizers (e.g., 2-joule energizer = 2 x 2m stakes).
-
Place multiple stakes at least 3m apart and connect with insulated lead-out cable.
-
Ensure the earth stake reads under 300V using a voltmeter for proper function.
The Micro 3 mounting & earth post is a practical and durable solution for creating a reliable earth system, essential for maintaining efficient electric fence performance.
