Oh. Here's your fix:

A longish piece of green grass. Hold it by one end, then slide it on the fence wire like the grass was a violin bow, getting your fingers closer and closer to the fence. At some point you notice a pinging, or your fingers are touching the fence.

You can use this to gauge, very roughly, how powerful the charge is at that point.
