Risk of severe injury or death by electrical shock.
•
To reduce risk of electrical shock, disconnect power before working on or around the system.
•
Wire pump system for correct voltage.
•
Be certain that this pump is connected to a circuit equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) device if required by
code.
•
Check electrical outlets with a circuit analyzer to ensure power, neutral, and ground wires are properly connected.
•
These pumps are designed to be used with an earth-grounding conductor. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, connect the
earth lead to a properly-grounded circuit in accordance with electrical code.
•
Some pumps are supplied with lead wires and are intended to be hardwired using a junction box or other approved enclosure.
The pumps include a grounding connector. To reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that it is properly connected to ground.
•
