In countries with ground frost, also sharp stones that move in the ground can damage the wire. Breaks can also occur due to the wire being stretched excessively during installation. Mowing the grass too low right after the installation can damage wire insulation. Damage to the insulation may not cause disruptions until several weeks or months later. To avoid this, always select the maximum cutting height the first weeks after installation and then lower the height one step at a time every second week until the desired cutting height has been reached. A defective splicing of the loop wire can also lead to disruptions several weeks after the splice was done. A faulty splice can, for example, be the result of the original coupler not being pressed together hard enough with a pair of pliers, or that a coupler of lower quality than the original coupler has been used. Please first check all known splices before further troubleshooting is done. A wire break can be located by gradually halving the distance of the loop where the break may have occurred until there is only a very short section of the wire left.
