Electric fencing ..

[schmism]

most high voltage fences use a capacator to build up a charge, then dischages quickly. The clicking is when the cap fires. which is why you can touch the wire in between pulses with little to no effect.

The Click is NORMAL. If it ain't clicking, it ain't working right.

I used to think if the charger is clicking, all's well. Not true. Now I check the meter on my solar Parmak to make sure the fence is working.

Yep!

Just went through this a month or two ago. I had a jumper that wasn't jumping so that jumped line was dead. This was right next to the charger.

Very strange. You'd think metal is metal?
