3.2.2
Bonding and Grounding
1.
In addition to being properly grounded as
described below in Sec. 3.2.3, and in accordance
with the requirements of the National Electrical
Code (NEC), or in Canada the Canadian
Electrical Code (CEC), the pump motor must
be bonded to all metal parts of the swimming
pool, spa or hot tub structure and to all electrical
components and equipment associated with the
pool/spa water circulation system.
2.
The bonding must be accomplished by using a
solid copper conductor, No. 8 AWG or larger.
In Canada No. 6 AWG or larger must be used.
Bond the motor using the external bonding lug
provided on the motor frame.

Operation Manual
™
National Electrical Code® (NEC®) requires bonding
of the Pool Water. Where none of the bonded pool
equipment, structures, or parts are in direct connection
with the pool water; the pool water shall be in
direct contact with an approved corrosion-resistant
conductive surface that exposes not less than 5800
mm² (9 in²) of the surface area to the pool water at all
times. The conductive surface shall be located where
it is not exposed to physical damage or dislodgement
during usual pool activities, and it shall be bonded in
accordance with the bonding requirements of NEC
Article 680. Refer to locally enforced codes for any
additional bonding requirements.
