Electrical Requirements - Endless Pools Fastlane Planning Manual

Equipment
EQUIPMENT PLACEMENT
In addition to planning for the pool site, you must also plan the location for the Hydraulic Power Unit that pumps
fluid to turn the Swim Unit propeller that creates the swim current.This unit is typically placed next to your other
pool equipment.
Hydraulic Power Unit
The 5 hp Power Unit pumps hydraulic fluid (non-food grade vegetable oil) that turns the propeller and generates the swim
current. The Power Unit operates only when the swim current is on. The Power Unit can be located adjacent to your other pool
equipment. If placed outside, the optional Outdoor Power Unit with Weather Guard should be purchased to protect it from the
everyday elements. The Power Unit should not be subjected to driving rain and must be placed on solid ground. This is an
air-cooled unit and must have ample ventilation.
frequent access is not required, it is imperative the Power Unit is accessible for general maintenance.

The Fastlane requires a single 30- mp, 220-Volt GFCI circuit to operate. n electrician must install a disconnect
box within 6 feet of the Power Unit location.
Bonding
Both the Swim Unit and Power Unit have bonding lugs. Proper bonding with a #8 or larger solid copper wire is required.
