servicing. This will prevent foreign matter (i.e. rainwater, dust, etc.) from accumulating in the drive.
When connecting the pump to an automation system (IntelliTouch
and IntelliComm
Communication Center), continuous power must be supplied to the pump by connecting it directly
®
to the circuit breaker. When using an automation system, be sure that no other lights or appliances are on the same
circuit.
1. Be sure all electrical breakers and switches are turned
off before wiring motor.
2. Be sure that the supply voltage meets the requirements
listed on the motor nameplate. If these requirements
are not met, permanent motor damage may occur.
3. For wiring sizes and general guidelines for proper
codes as required.
4. Use strain relief and be sure all electrical connections
are clean and tight.
5. Cut the wires to the appropriate length so they do
not overlap or touch when connected.
6. Reinstall the keypad cover after wiring the pump
by plugging the cover back into the drive wiring
connection and re-seating the keypad cover in the
desired orientation with the four (4) corner screws.
Ensure that the keypad cable is not pinched
between the drive and keypad cover during re-seating.

1. Permanently ground the motor using the green ground
screw, as shown below. Use the correct wire size and
the ground wire is connected to an electrical service
ground.
2. The pump should be permanently connected to either
a circuit breaker, 2-pole timer or 2-pole relay.
the pump should be wired on its own independent
circuit
1. Bond the motor to the structure in accordance with the
National Electrical Code. Use a solid copper bonding
conductor not smaller than 8 AWG. For Canadian
installations, a 6 AWG or larger solid copper bonding
conductor is required. Run a wire from the external
bonding screw or lug to the bonding structure.
2. Connect the wire from the accessible bonding lug on
the motor to all metal parts of the swimming pool, spa,
or hot tub structure and to all electrical equipment,
metal conduit, and metal piping within 5 feet (1.52
meters) of the inside walls of the swimming pool,
spa, or hot tub. Run a wire from the external bonding
screw or lug to the bonding structure.
