s.e. Pa | I have a solar fence charger on about 13 acres of pasture with high tensile fence. 2nd and 4th hot on a 5 wire fence. With a tester I am getting 1000 volts on the fence. If I unhook the fence from charger, I get 10k volts on charger. I have walked fence and cannot find a single missing insulator, or blade of grass grounding the fence. Two ground rods a few posts apart. Is there a way to load test my charger? Is it likely the charger is bad or I missed something on the fence? This charger is not too impressive. When I was a kid it seemed like those chargers kept the fence hot even when there were some shorts.
