Install the Boundary Wire

Before you begin installing the Boundary Wire, unplug the Fence Transmitter power adapter from the

outlet.

To Bury the Boundary Wire

Burying the Boundary Wire is recommended to protect it and prevent disabling the system.

1. Cut a trench 1-3 inches deep along your planned boundary.

2. Place the Boundary Wire into the trench maintaining some slack to allow it to expand and contract with

temperature variations.

3. Use a blunt tool such as a wooden paint stick to push the Boundary Wire into the trench. Be careful not to

damage the Boundary Wire insulation.

To Attach the Boundary Wire to an Existing Fence

The Boundary Wire of the PetSafe

In-Ground Fence

™

can be attached to a chain link fence, split rail fence,

or a wooden privacy fence. The Boundary Wire can be

attached as high as needed. However, make sure the

Boundary Width is set at a high enough range for the

pet to receive the signal. If using a Double Loop with

an existing fence at least ﬁve feet tall, run the Boundary

Wire on top of the fence and return it on the bottom of

the fence to get the ﬁve foot separation needed.

• Chain Link Fence (7A): Weave Boundary Wire

through the links or use plastic quick ties.

• Wooden Split Rail or Privacy Fence (7A): Use staples

to attach Boundary Wire. Avoid puncturing the

insulation of the Boundary Wire.
