Segment Range from Wire

3 3 feet

4 5 feet

5 8 feet

6 12 feet

The range will vary depending on the type of layout. Once you lay out your desired barrier

continue to Step 2 and 3 before burying the wire. It is important that you test the system and

make adjustments to your layout before burying the boundary wire. This will make any layout

changes easier. Work carefully. A nick in the wire insulation can diminish the signal strength and

create a weak area where your pet can enter the barrier area.

Additional tips for laying out your boundary wire:

Always use gradual turns (5B) at the corners with a minimum of 3 foot radius to produce a more

consistent boundary. Do not use sharp turns (5C), as this may cause gaps in your boundary.

UÊ Avoid making passageways too narrow for your pet to move about freely

(e.g., along the sides of a house).
