Agrifence Long Earth Rod 1M

Coated and hardened steel with unique clamp desiged for easier installation and removal.

You can test the effectiveness of your earth with a voltmeter – Put the live terminal onto the earth stake and the negative prod into the ground – if you get a reading of more than 300v then your earth system is inadequate. You’ll need a longer earth stake and/or additional stakes.

• Earth stakes must be installed in moist ground
• Must be at least 15m away from domestic earth installations
• Higher powered energisers and longer fences need a better earth connection. As a rule of thumb ensure you have 1m of earth rod for each joule of energy – so if you have a 2 joule energiser you will need 2 x 2m earth stakes
• Multiple earth stakes must be placed at least 3m apart and connected with insulated leadout cable.
• You must have less than 300v on the earth stake for it to be effective.
