GATE ANCHOR STEEL POST THUNDERBIRD EF-34BS

Drive the steel post into the ground at your gate entrance using a post driver, ensuring it's firm and level. Attach your electric fence wire to the anchor point on the Thunderbird EF-34BS, making sure the connection is tight and the wire has good contact with the metal. Run your energiser cable from the energiser unit to the post anchor, and connect it securely so there's no movement or vibration that could cause sparking. Test your fence with a meter before turning livestock through to confirm the charge is running properly. Tips: Check your ground conditions before installation — if you've got sandy or dry soil, wet the area first or drive the post deeper to get a solid earth connection, because a poor ground will kill your fence voltage. Inspect the anchor point connection every few months, especially after heavy rain or wind, as corrosion or loosening will drop your voltage and leave your gate unprotected. Keep the area around the post clear of grass and weeds; they'll short out your fence faster than anything else.
