Replacing The Globrite Color Light Assembly (In An Existing Pool Or Spa) - Pentair GLOBRITE Installation And User Manual

REPLACING THE GLOBRITE
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 current National Electrical Code (NEC), NFPA 70 or the
Canadian Electrical Code (CEC), CSA C22.1 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.
THE GLOBRITE COLOR LIGHT IS A NON-SERVICEABLE LIGHT.
THE COMPLETE LIGHT ASSEMBLY MUST BE REPLACED.
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:
• The lighting circuit has a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for 120
VAC line voltage models, and has an appropriately rated circuit breaker.
The conductors on the load side of the GFCI circuit shall not occupy
conduit, boxes, or enclosures containing other conductors unless the
additional conductors are also protected by a GFCI. Refer to local codes for
complete details.
• The Junction Box and the low voltage isolation transformer is located at
least eight (8) inches (20.3 cm) above ground level and at least 48 inches
(1.22 m) from the edge of the pool. See Figure 1 on page 7.
• The GloBrite ™
edge of the GloBrite light's lens is at least 4 inches below (not more than 48
inches below in Canada) the surface of the water in the pool or spa.
• To be certain that the pool or spa electrical system meets all applicable
requirements, the electrician should also consult the local building
department.
