If I was trying to troubleshoot the fence I'd start taking one stake out of the ground at a time on the energized portion. When the voltage goes away start looking for a rubbed place.If I was guessing there will be a bad place actually energizing the stake and you become part of the circuit to the "non" energized section. I've never owned one of those fences so I'm assuming that the stake uprights are metal. If not are the bottom strands hot, if so they could actually be conducting through the damp grass. Let us know if you find the trouble.
The Stakes are fiberglass or plastic and the bottom strand isn't hot. But, sometimes grass can contact the second strand. I usually mow to avoid that but it can still happen. Reviewing my video, I was thinking it might be the wet grass. It was a surprising mystery!
LOOKING GOOD BROTHER 😃
Thanks!
