| Looking
for breaks in your wire? The
Wire Break Locator (RFA-50) below can help cut your search time in half. Simply plug
the Wire Break Locator transmitter in place of your current PetSafe transmitter and it
will complete the signal loop (forcing an RF signal) in order to help locate the break in
your wire with the included AM radio. Simply follow your perimeter wire with the AM
radio and you will be able to hear the systems' static pulses being picked up by the
radio. When you get to an area with no static pulse at all, you've found your break
- now how easy is that ? Needless to say, there may be more than one problem area in
your layout.
Remember too the importance of water-proofing
any and all splices & repairs in your perimeter. If any moisture gets into the
wire it can corrode the copper wire (even within it's protective insulation) whereby
causing dead-spots and this too can be deemed a break or "dead-area" by the
transmitter. As such, if you do find a break, we strongly recommend not just fixing
the immediae break, but in fact replacing a 3-4ft section of the boundary wire in the area
just in case of any additional moisture issues.
For peace of mind with your
dog fence, this is a must-have item.
