Thanks for all the response to my question yesterday. I have looked at each insulator and connection in corners. I found on corner that I could hear popping a little so I replaced the polywire and it stopped. I disconnected the fence and each connection by itself was strong 6.9 to 8.7 when testing this I just had it grounded on one T post. The fence is 9 coming out of the charger. I have it grounded with two pieces of re-bar and one T post. I plan to get some real ground rods Monday. The reading on the meter is the same if I have it grounded on all three rods as it is when I have it just grounded to the post the charger is sitting on alone. My reading is now 5.0 on the fence about a foot from the charger and 3.9 at the end of the fence. when I walked around the fence testing it the reading just seemed to drop off a little at each splice and dropped most when the fence goes from wire to ploy wire. I am hoping the ground rods will clear this up. Thanks again!
