1. Identifying the Damage
There are two common types of damage:
Cut wire: The wire is completely severed.
Damaged wire: The wire is partially broken or exposed.
2. Importance of a Thorough Repair Process
The boundary wire is exposed to various environmental factors, such as moisture, rain, heat, and cold. Proper repair is crucial to prevent further damage and ensure reliable operation.
3. Avoiding Improper Repairs
Avoid quick fixes such as:
Insulating tape: Moisture in the soil can lead to wire oxidation, breaking the circuit over time.
Screw terminal blocks: These are prone to corrosion and do not provide a durable solution.
