3. Run the Aluminum Wire: Thread the aluminum wire through the pre-drilled holes in the PVC fence poles. Use the provided cotter pins to secure the wire to the poles, ensuring it remains taut. Multiple strands of wire can be run at different heights depending on the animals you wish to contain or deter.
4. Install Ground Rod: Drive the 22-inch ground rod into the earth near your chosen energizer location. Ensure it is firmly planted in moist soil for optimal grounding.
5. Connect Energizer:
   • Connect one lead from the energizer (typically marked 'Ground' or green terminal) to the ground rod using the ground clamp.
   • Connect the other lead from the energizer (typically marked 'Fence' or red terminal) to the aluminum fence wire.
