Hotline 47KV10 10kV LED Electric Fence Voltage Tester

Hotline 47KV10 LED Electric Fence Voltage Tester

The Hotline 47KV10 provides a simple and convenient way to check the voltage level of an electric fence.

Rather than simply telling you whether the fence is live, its 10-stage LED display gives an indication of the voltage present, allowing you to quickly assess whether your electric fencing system is performing effectively.

10-Stage LED Voltage Display

The 47KV10 uses 10 bright LEDs to indicate fence voltage between:

1,000 volts and 10,000 volts (1kV–10kV).

The bright LED arrangement provides an easy-to-read indication of fence performance when carrying out routine checks around a rearing field, release pen, paddock or livestock enclosure.

Self-Earthing – No Ground Stake Required

One of the major advantages of the Hotline 47KV10 is its self-earthing design.

Unlike traditional electric fence testers requiring a separate ground probe, the 47KV10 can operate without one. This makes it particularly convenient for carrying in a pocket and checking different sections of fencing as you walk the fence line.

Simple One-Button Operation

Testing is straightforward.

Place the metal contact area on the back of the tester against the electric fence conductor and press the button. The LED display then indicates the approximate voltage level present on the fence.

Useful for Routine Electric Fence Checks

Regular voltage testing can help identify when an electric fence isn’t performing as expected.

A reduction in fence voltage can be caused by issues such as:

• Vegetation contacting the fence
• Damaged insulators
• Poor electrical connections
• Broken conductors
• Faulty joins
• Problems with the earth system
• Excessive load on the fence
• Energiser or power-supply problems

Testing different sections of the system can help narrow down where a problem may be occurring. Hotline itself recommends regular testing as an important part of maintaining an effective electric fence.

Ideal for Game Rearing & Release Pens

The 47KV10 is particularly useful for gamekeepers and game rearers maintaining electric fencing around:

• Pheasant rearing areas
• Partridge rearing areas
• Release pens
• Predator-control fencing
• Poultry enclosures
• Livestock fields
• Paddocks
• Farms and estates

Its pocket-sized design makes it easy to keep with you while carrying out regular fence inspections.

Battery Powered

The tester requires 2 × CR2016 3V lithium batteries, which Hotline states are included.

A built-in battery power indicator helps confirm the condition of the tester’s batteries.
