An electric fence monitoring system includes an electric fence monitor and an electric fence monitor mounting bracket. The electric fence monitor is operable to provide an audible and/or visual indicator of an operating condition (i.e., fault or no-fault) of an electric fence and electric fence box. The electric fence monitor is operable to remain continuously connected between the electric fence and earth ground during normal operation of the fence. The mounting bracket affixes to a standard safety post or T-post and supports the electric fence monitor. The mounting bracket connects the electric fence monitor to earth ground via the T-post. The mounting bracket slips over a top of the T-post at a first angle relative to the T-post and locks onto the T-post at a second angle relative to the T-post.
