Using a voltmeter for testing electric fence

They work great and will work almost any brand of fencer from the very old to the very new, big and small. http://gallagherelectricfencing.com/collections/fence-testers-voltmeters-management-tools/products/gallagher-digital-voltmeter

This circuit is closed or completed when an animal touches the fence wire and the ground. Electrical shock will pass from the energizer through the fence wire, into the animal to the soil, then to the ground rods, then...
