CALL WESSLINK072 271 7111SAGEWOOD · FENCES OUT OF USE · ASSESSMENT BEFORE RESTARTING
Has an electric fence at your Sagewood property been left switched off or unused? Explain why, if known, and arrange an assessment before relying on it again. Wesslink can discuss the current condition, electric fence repairs and the inspection needed for an electric fence COC after the required work is completed.
Do not restart unfamiliar or visibly damaged equipment merely to see whether it still operates. Give the technician the known history and arrange safe access to the installation.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
Sagewood includes separately named residential developments, including Sagewood Manor and Minuet. Give the specific property or development in the enquiry. A private owner can describe an unused installation at their premises; a shared fence should be discussed through its responsible manager, who may hold the earlier fault reports and maintenance instructions.
Provide the original symptom and any earlier repair attempts. Ask for the installation to be assessed before simply returning it to service. The absence of a warning while equipment is off does not explain the original issue or identify which component needs replacement.
Gather available documents and ask for a current assessment. Explain any visible damage, missing equipment or recent work near the boundary. Avoid assuming that a quiet installation is intact or that an unused system must be replaced in full without inspection.
Discuss the intended use and whether the fence route still suits the property. Ask what can be retained after assessment, what needs correction and what operating information is available. A restoration quotation should describe the complete proposed result rather than price only a new battery or control box.
Ask Wesslink to explain the condition of the equipment and physical fence, with the necessary corrections identified. Separate work needed to restore the existing arrangement from optional changes. If further assessment is required, agree what it will establish and how the findings will be used before buying parts or accepting a broad replacement proposal.
Where an electric fence installation replacement is appropriate, obtain the relevant owner or development approval and agree what happens to redundant equipment. At completion, ask for ordinary operating guidance and the final installation description. Keep records of components retained, repaired or replaced so a future occupier understands the current system rather than the abandoned arrangement they first saw.
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 how long the fence has been unused if known, why it was switched off and what records remain. Provide safe photographs and access details. Ask how initial assessment, identified corrections and certification are priced. A restoration estimate may need inspection before its scope can be finalised, especially where previous alterations or missing parts are unclear.

ELECTRIC FENCE COC · SAGEWOOD
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Stop experimenting with unfamiliar equipment and report the indication. Wesslink can discuss electric fence fault finding and the assessment needed before normal use resumes.
Ask for the present condition and suitability to be assessed. Time out of use alone does not identify the required component or repair.
Yes, include the required inspection and tests in the enquiry. Necessary corrections must be completed before certification follows a compliant result.
Agree what is active, retained or redundant with the technician. Keep the final installation clearly identified and have any removal performed as part of authorised work.
Retain the completed-work description, operating information and any electric fence certificate of compliance issued for the assessed installation.
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.
