ELECTRIC FENCE COC · MIDSTREAM RIDGE
Questions before you book.
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Is your electric fence alarming without a notification reaching security?+
Report both observations to the responsible operator. Electric fence fault finding can then be coordinated with checks of the reporting arrangement. Do not change shared equipment settings or bypass alerts yourself.
Does an old alarm indication mean the fault is still present?+
The meaning depends on the equipment and the indication shown. Give the technician the model and message; some devices distinguish active warnings from alarm history.
Will a louder siren solve a missing remote alert?+
Explain the actual problem first. A local sounder and a receiving system serve different roles, so the relevant equipment and connections need assessment before a replacement is proposed.
Can the repair include checking that the operator receives an alert?+
Agree the completion checks with the technician and responsible operator before attendance. If an electric fence compliance certificate is also required, include the relevant inspection and tests in the enquiry.
What should be recorded when reporting equipment changes?+
Keep the new equipment description, completed-work details and any revised section labels, with any electric fence certificate of compliance issued. Make the information available to the authorised operator who handles future alerts.
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.
