Something caught near your Roodekrans fence, or a warning you cannot explain? Keep people away from the wires and describe what can be seen safely. Wesslink can arrange electric fence fault finding, discuss necessary repairs and help with an electric fence COC enquiry for your installation.
Do not pull material from an electric fence, reach through it or approach an animal caught nearby. Ask for appropriate professional help and explain the situation before attendance.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Roodekrans has a well-known connection with local bird conservation through the Black Eagle Project Roodekrans. At your own property, the practical concern may be much smaller: an unfamiliar object, nesting material or a branch near a fence line. If you notice one, describe its position from a safe place rather than trying to find out whether it is touching a wire.
Report the location and appearance without approaching for a closer photograph. An absence of noise or an alarm should not be used as permission to handle the object. Explain whether people normally use the space beneath or beside that section.
Give the indication or sound already noticed and the part of the property where it was heard. Leave the search to the technician. Do not walk along an unfamiliar boundary at night or move vegetation to demonstrate a possible contact.
Tell the person arranging the visit before work begins. Appropriate wildlife assistance may need to be coordinated separately from electrical work. Nobody should assume that clearing the fence gives them permission or the ability to handle wildlife safely.
Once the situation has been assessed, ask what electrical work is needed and whether another professional must first address an obstruction or animal. Electric fence repairs may involve more than taking an object away. Keep any damaged components and the required follow-up clear in the work description.
If you are considering a new electric fence installation, explain how the boundary is used and the maintenance access available. Obtain applicable property approval before changes. The proposed arrangement should be assessed for the actual site; do not choose a route by copying a neighbouring fence or assuming every boundary presents the same conditions.
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
For a Roodekrans enquiry, describe the observed concern, the accessible boundary and any other assistance already arranged. Ask what investigation and repairs are included. Removal of large branches, structural work or wildlife handling should be discussed separately rather than silently included in an electrical quotation.

ELECTRIC FENCE COC · ROODEKRANS
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Yes. Explain what happened and what work was done. The relevant installation still needs assessment, with necessary repairs and inspection completed before certification can be finalised.
Retain the relevant completed-work information and identify the affected section. A description of what was repaired is more useful for future maintenance than a note saying only that the fence was cleared.
Keep clear and report both the alarm and what you can already see. Do not remove the object to test whether the warning stops. Arrange professional assessment of the fence and any separate removal work needed.
Explain the obstruction first and agree safe arrangements with the relevant professionals. Do not work close to wires or assume gardening tools make that task safe.
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.
