Heater Bonding - Pentair MASTERTEMP 200HD Installation And User Manual

HEATER BONDING

To reduce voltage gradients in the pool area, the
heater and the pool system equipment must be
electrically grounded and "bonded" together. Con-
nect a solid copper conductor (8 AWG or larger) to
the heater "bonding" terminal lug provided on the
exhaust side of the heater. See Figure 30.
Not properly "bonding" and grounding the heater
increases the risk of electrical shock and can cause
damage and electrolysis to the heat exchanger.
All wiring must be in accordance with all applicable
codes. The heater, when installed, must be
electrically grounded and "bonded" in accordance
with local codes or, in the absence of local codes,
with the National Electrical Code or the Canadian
Electrical Code (as applicable).
