Do different occupiers use parts of your Kengies property while one fence serves the boundary? Wesslink can assess the installation for an electric fence COC and explain repairs or investigation. Identify who controls the equipment and how it can be reached without depending on whichever tenant happens to be available on the day.
An occupier’s access to a room or garden does not automatically authorise changes to fence equipment serving other people.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Johannesburg’s Fourways development framework describes residential and office clusters in Kengies. At a property with more than one occupier, the fence may need coordination across different access arrangements. Explain the actual setup: who owns the equipment, who holds the relevant keys and which areas the inspector needs to reach. Keep residential and workplace routines clear when arranging the visit.
Arrange that person’s access agreement and identify the owner or manager responsible for the installation. Tell the inspector about locked rooms or separate schedules before booking. A shared boundary should not be assessed on the assumption that the equipment is reachable simply because another part of the property is open.
Record whether they are removing anything connected to the fence or changing access to equipment. Retain the relevant work history and agree the new maintenance contact. Do not allow a departing tenant’s contractor to disconnect or relocate common equipment without the responsible owner’s instruction and the necessary fence-related assessment.
Describe the finished gate and access route before requesting electric fence installation changes. Ask who approves the work and how it affects the existing system. The quotation should relate to the complete intended arrangement, not simply a short new section added without considering the equipment already serving the boundary.
Provide the existing electric fence compliance certificate and explain the property’s current occupancy arrangement. The certificate should be matched to the installation it describes; the number of tenants or entrances is not enough to identify that system. If earlier records use an old property name or unit reference, supply the full address and known changes for review.
For electric fence repairs, nominate a responsible contact to collect observations and approve work. Ask for findings and completion records to be kept where future occupiers and managers can retrieve the relevant information. If an area cannot be accessed, record the limitation and arrange follow-up instead of assuming the rest of the property’s availability completes the inspection.
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
Explain the number of separately accessed areas and any known restrictions when requesting a price. Ask what the initial visit covers and whether coordination or return attendance may be needed. A shared installation should have a clearly described assessment and repair quotation, even where different occupiers have separate rental or operating arrangements.

ELECTRIC FENCE COC · KENGIES
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
First identify the installation described and who keeps its records. Do not assume a document covers separate systems or a later alteration merely because tenants share an address.
Collect the observed time and message from that area. Electric fence fault finding should assess the relevant installation; the location of the report does not by itself establish who caused or must pay for a fault.
Tell us which area is unavailable before booking. The required assessment and any limitation need to be explained, with suitable follow-up access arranged where necessary.
The responsible owner or manager should confirm the instruction and any applicable approval. Coordinate affected occupiers so access and normal property use are addressed before work begins.
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.
