CALL WESSLINK072 271 7111SUSPECTED BURIED FAULTS · INVESTIGATION FIRST · REINSTATEMENT
Suspect a buried fence connection is causing trouble at your Strubens Valley property? Arrange assessment before anyone digs up the route. Wesslink can discuss electric fence fault finding, the repairs indicated by the findings and an electric fence COC enquiry where inspection is also required.
Do not excavate, probe the ground or uncover a suspected electrical route yourself. Existing plans and observations can help the enquiry without exposing cables or connections.
BEFORE YOU BOOK
For a Strubens Valley home or premises with a suspected concealed fence connection, start with the actual symptom and known installation history. Explain whether the route is beneath a driveway, garden or another finished area if you already know. A fence problem should not automatically become an instruction to excavate every route someone remembers.
Describe the indication and what has already been observed safely. Explain any known concealed section without claiming it is the cause. The assessment can determine the next technical step rather than relying on a guess based on where wires disappear from view.
Provide any existing drawings, photographs from earlier work or contractor information. Keep remembered routes separate from confirmed records. Do not lift paving or use a metal tool to search for a cable before the relevant professionals have agreed the work.
Gather the repair description and explain the current concern. Electric fence repairs should be based on the present findings, with any access required made clear. A previous repair location can be useful history without proving that the same point has failed again.
If investigation shows that a concealed section needs access, ask for the work and responsibilities to be explained before surfaces are disturbed. Keep electrical repairs separate from excavation and making good where different contractors are involved. Ask what can be inspected before the area is closed again.
For a new electric fence installation, discuss the proposed route and any areas that may later be difficult to reach. Obtain applicable property or scheme approval. Keep relevant completed-work information so future owners can understand the installation without relying on a memory of where a trench once ran.
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 Strubens Valley, ask the quotation to distinguish initial investigation from confirmed repairs, access work and reinstatement. Supply the available route information and surface details. Avoid agreeing a large excavation simply to match an unverified theory about the fault; ask how further work will be discussed once findings are available.

ELECTRIC FENCE COC · STRUBENS VALLEY
Practical answers for owners, sellers and property managers.
Yes. Explain the concern and known route information. The relevant installation needs assessment, and any necessary repairs and inspection must be addressed before certification can be completed.
Keep useful completed-work details with the fence documents, including the section repaired and any relevant route information. That helps future maintenance without requiring someone to guess what lies beneath a finished surface.
Report the alarm and location information, but leave the ground and equipment undisturbed. Arrange professional investigation rather than digging to see whether the connection looks damaged.
Explain the available information and ask what assessment is possible first. The quotation should state what is known and what further work depends on the findings, with opening and making-good responsibilities clear.
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.
