ELECTRIC FENCE COC · HONEYDEW RIDGE
Questions before you book.
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Can an electric fence compliance certificate enquiry include damaged equipment covers?+
Yes. Explain the concern so the relevant installation can be assessed. Any necessary repairs and further inspection need completion before certification can be finalised.
Should enclosure repairs be kept with the electric fence certificate of compliance records?+
Retain the completed-work description and relevant inspection documents together. The record should explain what was repaired or changed, especially if the equipment position or connections were altered.
Is your electric fence alarming and the enclosure looks damaged?+
Keep clear and report both observations. Do not open the housing, refit parts or operate damaged controls to make the alarm stop. Arrange professional assessment of the installation.
Can I replace a cover that looks identical?+
Have the condition and suitability assessed first. An enclosure issue may involve connections or other work that is not visible from outside, and selecting a similar-looking part does not complete the required assessment.
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.
