CALL WESSLINK072 271 7111BLUE HILLS AH · ACTIVE AND ABANDONED SECTIONS · EXISTING FENCES
Does your Blue Hills AH property have old fence wires or equipment whose present use is unclear? Ask Wesslink to identify the existing installation before ordering repairs or requesting an electric fence COC. Explain the sections known to be in use and any older lines or devices that remain on the property.
Treat unidentified fence wires as potentially live. Do not cut, reconnect or remove old components on the assumption that their appearance means they have been abandoned.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Blue Hills AH is a recognised Midrand address, used by local premises including Blue Hills Schools. Give the actual street and holding or property reference, together with the entrance to use. Where a property has changed over time, the current fence may not follow every older wire or barrier visible on the land.

Provide the available model or label information without opening the enclosure. Tell Wesslink whether anyone knows its purpose or previous use. The equipment and relevant connections can be assessed rather than deciding from a faded label that it is disconnected or belongs to a former installation.
Identify the location and any previous work known to have taken place. Ask for that section to be included in the assessment. Differences in appearance can prompt useful questions, but they do not establish which wires are active or what corrections are required.
Show the proposed route before materials are purchased. Ask which existing components must be retained, corrected or removed by the appropriate contractor. Do not let site clearance proceed around unidentified electrical components while the installation design is still being discussed.
Provide the records that remain, even if they cover only part of the property. Tell Wesslink which areas have changed and which sections have not been inspected recently, if known. Ask the assessment to identify the installation involved and explain any uncertain or inaccessible parts that need further attention before completion.
Electric fence repairs should address the actual findings. A proposed new electric fence installation should account for relevant retained equipment and abandoned components requiring safe removal. Obtain the applicable property or development approvals before changes. Keep the final description and equipment details so a future occupier can distinguish the working installation from unrelated barriers or removed sections.
INSPECTION & TESTING
A working energiser is one part of the system. The inspection also considers the fence installation, its safety provisions and the test results.
An electric fence certificate follows inspection and testing by a registered person. Defects affecting compliance must be corrected before certification. Read Regulations 12–13 ↗
Identify the equipment and the fence sections it supplies, including alterations and gate crossings.
Inspect the earth system, wires, joints, brackets and insulators, together with the installation’s condition.
Check the safety provisions around the fence, including signs and places where people can approach it.
Explain defects found, agree the repair work and complete the checks needed before certification.
ELECTRIC FENCE COC COSTS
Describe the known fence route, the unexplained sections and the equipment present. Ask what assessment is required before a firm corrective quotation can be given. Clarify whether removal of obsolete components, access preparation, repairs and final inspection are included or priced separately once their condition and purpose have been established.

ELECTRIC FENCE COC · BLUE HILLS AH
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Provide the current equipment message and available records. Electric fence fault finding can investigate the installation. Do not disconnect sections yourself to work out which one is involved.
Have its condition and connection assessed first. Leave removal of electrical components to the appropriate contractor rather than assuming unused-looking wire is safe to handle.
Explain the uncertainty when booking. The relevant installation must be identified and the required inspection and tests completed, with any defects or unresolved access dealt with appropriately.
No. Identify each barrier’s purpose and the equipment actually connected to it through the assessment. Do not infer the active route from a property sketch or visual appearance alone.
Keep the completed work, equipment identification and any electric fence certificate of compliance issued. Record components removed or retained so the same uncertainty is not passed to the next owner.
A registered electric fence system installer may issue an electric fence compliance certificate after the required inspection and testing. An ordinary electrical COC is a separate document.
Ask for the inspection, any repairs and any return visit to be itemised in the quote. The work required depends on what is found; a price should not assume that the fence will pass before it has been inspected.
