Possible Causes

Non‑waterproof connectors used outdoors, Poorly crimped joints, Standing water around connectors, Incompatible wire gauge

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Disconnect the charging station from mains before working on the boundary wire.

  • Locate problem joints: Walk the boundary and inspect all splices and connectors for green/white corrosion or loose wires.
  • Use proper connectors: Replace faulty joints with gel‑filled Kress Boundary Wire Connectors rated for underground use.
  • Elevate or protect: Where possible, place connectors above areas prone to standing water or encase them in protective housings.
  • Match wire gauge: Ensure all boundary wire sections are of similar gauge to avoid resistance issues.
