Read the result

Green LEDs mean your fence is strong enough. Red means it’s time to fix it. Simple as that.

Understanding the voltage levels

ZapSense shows the strength of your fence using 7 LEDs.
Here’s what each level means – and when you need to take action.

0 LEDs = below 500V (red)
Too weak – your fence is not working at all.
1 LED = 500–1000V (red)
Not enough to keep animals in out.
2 LEDs = 1000–2000V (red)
Still too weak – risk of escapes or intrusions.
3 LEDs = 2000–4000V (green)
Minimum level for a functional fence.
4 LEDs = 4000–6000V (green)
Strong and reliable for most animals.
5 LEDs = 6000–8000V (green)
Very good strength, suitable for horses, cattle, sheep.
6 LEDs = 8000–10000V (green)
High protection.
7 LEDs = above 10000V (green)
Maximum strength – excellent safety margin.
