CALL WESSLINK072 271 7111NEW OCCUPANTS · CLEAR OPERATING INFORMATION · SAFE HANDOVER
Moved into a Paulshof home with an electric fence you do not understand? Wesslink can inspect the installation, explain identified defects and help with an electric fence COC. Gather the documents and operating information left by the previous occupant, and avoid experimenting with unfamiliar controls to discover what they do.
Ask for an explanation of normal operation and what to do when a warning appears. Keep testing, opening equipment and work on fence conductors for the appropriate professional.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Paulshof has an established residents and ratepayers association supporting its local community. Moving into the area also means learning the equipment at your particular property. A neighbourhood contact list is useful, but your fence handover should explain who maintains the installation, which documents belong to it and how occupants should report a problem safely.
Keep them labelled only with what is confirmed, and ask for a proper operating explanation. Do not assume a button controls the fence because it was stored beside the gate remote. Tell the inspector if the normal fence controls cannot be identified or are locked away from the person attending the appointment.
Provide the certificate and any invoices you received. Explain visible changes or equipment the seller mentioned, distinguishing confirmed information from guesses. An electric fence compliance certificate is part of the handover record; the current inspection still needs to consider the actual installation and any relevant work since that document was issued.
Write down what each person sees during normal use, without sharing security codes in a public group. Electric fence fault finding benefits from a consistent description. Agree one household contact to collect observations and speak to Wesslink so repeat reports do not become conflicting instructions about the same incident.
Ask what the ordinary indications mean and which contact should receive a fault report. If the system has a separately appointed monitoring service, confirm its own contact details and arrangements with that provider. An inspection or repair visit should not be treated as activation of a response contract or a change to another company’s account.
Where electric fence repairs are identified, request a clear explanation of the defect and proposed correction before choosing optional upgrades. If you want a different electric fence installation arrangement, describe the outcome you need rather than ordering components from an old invoice. For shared property, involve the managing agent or owner responsible for the fence before changes are approved.
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
Tell Wesslink whether the main need is a condition assessment, help with a certificate, a reported fault or a planned alteration. Include missing keys or inaccessible equipment in that discussion. A quotation can then identify the work actually needed rather than assuming a simple handover conversation will include repairs, new components and a full assessment at one unspecified price.

ELECTRIC FENCE COC · PAULSHOF
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Request the relevant certificate, available repair records, normal operating instructions and the details of any separately appointed service provider. Keep access codes private and transfer them through an appropriate secure process.
Record the normal display message and when it happens. Do not repeatedly reset or test unfamiliar equipment; arrange an assessment and tell Wesslink what information the previous occupant supplied.
The certificate and operating instructions serve different purposes. Ask for both the installation records and a clear explanation of normal use rather than expecting the certificate to function as a user manual.
A tenant can report the concern and help with access. Agree the appointment and authority for repairs with the landlord, and involve management where the equipment belongs to a shared system.
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.
