(NEW POOL CONSTRUCTION - CANADA)
Be sure
the electrical system of your pool conforms with the following requirements of the
Canadian Electrical Code (CE), and all local codes and ordinances. A licensed or certified
electrician must install the electrical system to meet or exceed those requirements before
the light and (fixture-housing) is installed. Some of the CE requirements are listed below.
120 VAC and 12 VAC pool/spa lights must have a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI), and has an appropriately rated circuit breaker. See Figure 2, page 7 for
details.
The GFCI or a transformer must be located at least 3 m or more from the edge of
the pool, see *NOTE and Figure 2 on page 7.
The junction/deck box must be sealed to the conduit to prevent water from getting
into the box, see Figure 2 on page 7.
The light fixture and all metal items within 3 m (10 ft) of the pool must be properly
electrically bonded.
The niche must be properly installed so the pilot screw hole is at the 12 o'clock
position and that the center line of the Underwater Light's lens is at a maximum
depth of 600 mm below the surface of the water in the pool, see Figure 4 on
page 8.
Be sure the niche is properly electrically bonded via the No. 6 AWG ground
connector located at the rear of the niche.
Use only Pentair lighting fixtures in this niche to ensure proper bonding and
grounding connections.
If non-metallic conduit is used, a No. 8 AWG bonding/grounding wire must be
installed through the conduit from the Junction Box to the bonding/grounding lug
inside the niche. Seal the wire/lug connection with a listed sealant such to protect
the connection from possible pool water corrosion. See Figure 4 on page 8.
