GLOBRITE
The following describes how to install the GloBrite Color Light fixture.
BEFORE STARTING: The following information describes the tasks that
must be completed by the electrician before the light fixture is installed.
See Figure 1 on page 7.
Be sure that the pool or spa meets the requirements of the current National Electrical
Code (N.E.C.) Article 680-22 and all local codes and ordinances. A licensed or
certified electrician must install the electrical system to meet or exceed those
requirements before the underwater light is installed. Some of the requirements of the
National Electrical Code which the pool's electrical system must meet are as follows:
• The Junction Box and the low voltage transformer is located at least
4 (four) inches (10.16 cm) above ground level or eight (8) inches
(20.3 cm) above maximum water level, whichever is higher. The Junction Box
must be at least 48 inches (1.22 m) from the edge of the pool. See Figure 2 on
page 8.
• The GloBrite light niche must be properly installed so that the top edge of the lens
of the GloBrite light is at least 4 inches below (not more than 48 inches below in
Canada) the surface of the water in the pool or spa. See Figure 2 on page 8.
• To be certain that the pool or spa electrical system meets all applicable
requirements, the electrician should also consult the local building department.
