ELECTRIC FENCE COC · FRANKLIN ROOSEVELT PARK
Questions before you book.
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Will an electric fence compliance certificate teach me how to operate the equipment?+
The certificate and user instructions serve different purposes. Ask for operating information for the installed equipment as well as the inspection outcome. Keep both available to the responsible occupant.
What if the electric fence certificate of compliance uses an older property description?+
Provide it unchanged with the correct current address and explain the difference. Wesslink can review it as background to the inspection. Do not edit a certificate yourself or assume it describes the fence simply because a similar address appears.
Is your electric fence alarming with a message you do not recognise?+
Record the wording if it can be read safely and contact Wesslink. Electric fence fault finding can assess the equipment and installation. Do not press unidentified controls or disconnect components in an attempt to clear the message.
Can the fence information be handed to a tenant or caretaker?+
Yes, provide the relevant documents and user guidance through the owner or managing contact. Explain how faults should be reported and keep private codes secure. Anyone asked to arrange repairs should also know who can authorise the work.
Who can issue an electric fence certificate of compliance?+
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.
Will the inspection fee include repairs?+
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.
