It's a frightening thing to physically witness happening. Things start popping and parts (normally Electrolytic caps) start exploding inside equipment like amps etc. You don't know what's gonna happen next and you can't get to mains isolation switch quickly enough or in time to stop further damage. Happened to me oncea property i manage lost the neutral - it blew all the tenants fridges tv's microwaves ETC ETC

fokkers came last night and took all the tec screws out our electric fence post ( the last post ) and tied it up with wire
im sure they were planning on coming back tonight . bought new longer tec screws and hammered them in ( into wood gumpoles ) . put chains around the post . getting a welder to spot weld the tec screws heads so they cant be unscrewed
will that work with wooden gumpoles ?
Yes, the HIT-RE 500 V3 can also be used for wood, natural and certain engineered wood productswill that work with wooden gumpoles ?
