Replacing the IntelliBrite
Light Fixture (in an existing pool or spa)
Verify that the pool and spa meets the requirements of the current National Electrical
Code 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:
• 120 VAC pool/spa lights must have a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), with an
appropriately rated circuit breaker. 12 VAC pool/spa/lights do not require a GFCI.
Figure 1, page 7 for details.
• The Junction Box: For 12 volt models only, the low voltage step-down transformer
shall be located at least 8 in (20.3 cm) above the maximum water line and at least
4 in (10.2 cm) above the ground level or pool deck whichever provides the greater
elevation. The junction box shall be no less than 4 ft (1.22 m) from the inside wall of
the pool, unless separated from the pool by a solid fence, wall or other permanent
barrier. See Figure 3 on page 9.
• Bond the niche-fixture housing to all other metallic items within 5 ft (1.53 m) of the
pool, using a No. 8 AWG bond wire. The Bond connection is located at the rear of the
niche, see Figure 3 on page 9.
• The wet niche is properly installed so the top edge of the underwater light's lens is at
least 18 inches (45.7 cm) below the surface of the water in the pool, see Figure 3 on
page 9. Also, the face ring PILOT SCREW must be at the 12 o'clock position.
• If non-metallic conduit is used, a No. 8 AWG bonding/grounding wire must be
installed through the conduit from the Junction Box to the bonding/grounding lug
inside the niche. Seal the wire/lug connection with a listed sealant to protect the
connection from possible pool water corrosion. See Figure 3 on page 9.
• To be certain that the pool's electrical system meets all applicable requirements, the
electrician should also consult the local building department. Note: Use only Pentair
wet niches to insure proper bonding and grounding connections.
When IntelliBrite color lights are powered on, the
Risk of Electrical Shock or Electrocution!
This underwater light must be installed by a licensed or certified electrician or
a qualified pool professional in accordance with the National Electrical Code
and all applicable local codes and ordinances. Improper installation will create
an electrical hazard which could result in death or serious injury to pool users,
installers or others due to electrical shock, and may also cause damage to
property. Always disconnect the power to the pool light at the circuit breaker
before servicing the light. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury
to service person, pool users or others due to electrical shock.
