Fittings
Fittings restrict flow. For better efficiency, use the fewest possible fittings. Avoid fittings that could cause an air
trap. Use two or more suction outlets per pump installed in accordance with latest ASME, APSP Standards and CPSC
guidelines, follow all National, State, and Local codes applicable.
Electrical
WARNING
– All electrical wiring MUST conform to local codes, regulations, and the National Electric Code
(NEC).
WARNING
– Ground and bond pump before connecting to electrical power supply. Failure to ground and
bond pump 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 pump before working on electrical connections. Fire
Hazard - match supply voltage to pump nameplate voltage. Insure that the electrical supply available agrees
with the pump's voltage, phase, and cycle, and that the wire size is adequate for the amps rating and distance
from the power source. Use copper conductors only.
Electrical Specs
Refer to motor nameplate for voltage and current ratings. Use copper conductors only. For indoor & outdoor use.
Connect pump to an appropriately sized/rated branch circuit protector in accordance with local codes, regulations,
and the National Electric Code (NEC).
spa, or hot tub must be provided.
Voltage
Voltage at pump MUST NOT be more than 10% above or below nameplate rated voltage, or components may
overheat, causing overload tripping and reduced component life. If voltage is less than 90% or more than 110% of
rated voltage when pump is running at full load, consult the power company.
Grounding and Bonding
1. Install, ground, bond, and wire pump in accordance with local or national electrical code requirements.
2. Permanently ground pump. Use green ground terminal provided under access plate; use size and type wire
required by code. Connect ground terminal to electrical service ground.
3. Bond pump to pool structure. Bonding will connect all metal parts within and around the pool with a continuous
wire. Bonding reduces the risk of a current passing between bonded metal objects, which could potentially
cause electrical shock if grounded or shorted. Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not
limited to, grounding, bonding and general wiring procedures.
4. Use a solid copper conductor, size 8 or larger. Run wire from external bonding lug to reinforcing rod or mesh.
Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm
wire connector provided on the motor housing and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and to
all electrical equipment, metal piping (except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of inside walls of
swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.

WARNING
– All electrical wiring MUST conform to local codes, regulations, and National Electric Code (NEC)
Pump MUST be permanently connected to circuit. Connect pump to an appropriately sized/rated branch circuit
protector in accordance with local codes, regulations, and the National Electric Code (NEC). Use the circuit breaker
as the master On-Off switch.
