I'm new to electric fencing. Have a battery Hotshock A50 energiser. I'm using 6 and 15 strand polywire on reels and Gallagher Vario temporary posts. I get mostly 10kv power readings though sometimes get 11kv and once 12kv.
The problem is everything seems to have power in it, particularly my temporary posts. Is this normal? I thought the posts weren't supposed to carry current.
Got this reading today
This is a different post, it's hot too
I'm running 3 hot wires with a non energised 4th on the lowest rung. Except that is energised too, the only way I can see power getting to it is from the posts themselves.
Getting lots of shocks
Any ideas as to why this is happening?
