Electrical Connections
High voltages capable of causing severe injury or death by electrical
shock are present in this unit.
• Be certain that this pump is connected to a circuit equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter
(GFCI) device if required by code.
Connect the power cord to a constant source of power matching the pump nameplate voltage..
• Connect the pump to its own circuit, with no other electric receptacles or equipment in the cir-
cuit.
• Ensure that the fuses or circuit breaker are of ample
capacity in the electrical circuit.
• Plug pumps into a properly grounded receptacle.
NOTE: RL-SP Series breaker size = 15 A.
IMPORTANT: If the power cord is damaged, the whole
unit must be replaced.
Pumps with a tethered or vertical float switch include two
power cords with a piggyback plug on the switch cord.
1. Plug the pump cord into the piggyback switch cord.
2. Plug the switch cord (with pump cord attached) into a
GFCI outlet.
OPERATION TESTING
Risk of damage to pump or other equipment.
• Always check the power cord and electric receptacle for damage or corrosion before each use. The
power cord on these units cannot be replaced. If damaged, replace the pump.
• Do not let the unit run dry (without liquid). It is designed to be cooled by pumping fluid. The seal may
be damaged and the motor may fail if the pump is allowed to run dry.
• Do not let the unit freeze. This may cause cracking or distortion that may destroy the unit.
To test pump operation independently of the float switch cord, install the pump and plug the pump
cord directly into the outlet.
1. Plug the pump and piggyback cord assembly into a grounded receptacle.
• Ensure the gate valve in the discharge line is open.
2. Run water into the basin.
3. Confirm that the pump and switches are functioning as intended.
• Ensure that the ON/OFF levels are within specification and that no potential obstructions exist
that could inhibit switch operation. Refer to
• Confirm that there are no leaks in the system plumbing
• Confirm that spray from the air bleed hole is captured within the basin.
4. Allow the pump to operate through several ON/OFF cycles.
