Ground motor before connecting to electrical power supply! Failure to
ground pump motor can cause serious or fatal electrical shock hazard!
Do not ground to a gas supply line!
To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn OFF power to motor
before working on electrical connections.
GFCI tripping indicates an electrical problem. If GFCI trips and will not
reset, have a qualified electrician inspect and repair electrical system.
Exactly match supply voltage to nameplate voltage (230 Volt, 50 Hz
single phase only)! Incorrect voltage can cause fire or seriously damage
motor and voids warranty!
Grounding:
Install, ground, and wire motor according to local or National Electrical Code
requirements.
Permanently ground motor; use size and type wire required by code.
Ground connection must be made to green grounding terminal under motor
canopy or access plate (see Figure 1).
Connect motor ground terminal to electrical service ground.
Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 sq. mm) solid copper bonding wire to the pressure
wire connector provided on the motor housing and to all metal parts of the
swimming pool, spa, or hot tub and to all electrical equipment, metal piping
or conduit within 5 feet (1.5 m) of the inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or
hot tub.
Install and bond pump according to local codes and ordinances; use copper
bonding lug on motor (see Figure 1).
Wiring:
Use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) as master on-off switch; it will
sense a short circuit to ground and disconnect power before it becomes dan-
gerous to spa users. Test GFCI according to manufacturer's instructions.
Pump must be permanently connected to circuit; be sure no other lights or ap-
pliances are on the same circuit.
Match wire size and circuit breaker size to Table I, Page 6.
