WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTROCUTION. The Pool Pump must be installed by
a licensed or certified electrician or a qualified service professional in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes
and ordinances. Improper installation will create an electrical hazard which
could result in death or serious injury to users, installers, or others due to
electrical shock, and may also cause damage to property.
Always disconnect power to the pump at the circuit breaker before servicing
the pump. Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to service
people, pool users, or others due to electric shock and/or property damage.
Read all servicing instructions before working on the pump.
Wiring Overview and Installation
All electrical wiring MUST be in conformance with all applicable local codes,
regulations, and the National Electric Code® (NEC®). Contact a qualified
electrician if you cannot verify that the circuit is protected by a GFCI. The
unit must be connected only to a supply circuit that s protected by a ground-
fault circuit-interrupter (GFCI). Such a GFCI should be provided by the
installer and should be tested on routine basis. To test the GFCI, push the
test button. The GFCI should interrupt power. Push the reset button. Power
should be restored. The. GFCl is defective if the GFCI fails to operate in
this way. If the GFCl interrupts power to the pump without the test button
being pushed, aground current s flowing, indicating the possibility of an
electric shock. Stop using this pump. Disconnect the pump and ask a qualified
professional to correct the problem before using.
The pump accepts 220V, 60Hz single phase input power. The terminal block
connections are capable of handling up to T6AWG solid or stranded wire. There
are also fast-on type quick connectors, however, check the local electrical
codes for the desired connection method. The connections must be permanently
made to the grounding terminal (see Figure 4) in the field wiring compartment
according to the local electrical code The drive will operate on 2-phase Line-
Line-Ground electrical systems as well as Line-Neutral-Ground systems.
This pump must be permanently connected by circuit breaker as specified in the
local electrical code.
WARNING: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK.
- Be sure all electrical breakers and switches are turned off before wiring motor. Always wait five (5) minutes after disconnecting the power from the pump before opening or servicing the drive.
- Choose a wire size for the pump in accordance with the current National Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and ordinances. When in doubt use a heavier gauge (larger diameter) wire. Be sure the wiring voltage is within the operating range.
- Be sure all electrical connections are clean and tight.
- Cut wires to the appropriate length so they do not overlap or touch when connected to the terminal board.
- Permanently ground the motor using the ground screw located on the inside rear of the controller interface (see Figure 4). Use the correct wire size and type specified by the current National Electrical Code. Be sure the ground wire is connected to an electrical service ground.
- Bond the motor to all metal parts of the pool structure and to all electrical equipment, metal conduit, and metal pipping within & feet (1.5 M) of the inside walls of the swimming pool, spa or hot tub in accordance with the current National Electrical Code. UL requires use of a solid copper bonding conductor not smaller than 8 AWG. See Figure 4.
- The pump should be permanently connected to either a circuit breaker, 2-pole timer or 2-pole relay. If AC
power is supplied by a GFCI circuit breaker, use a dedicated circuit breaker that has no other electrical loads.
WIRING (the instruction for extension power
cord)
- Peel off the black cable skin to reveal the 3 wires inside, strip each cable by 2/3 inch with a wire stripper, then strip the insulation to reveal 1/5 inch copper wire. Prepare the pump wire extension, repeat the above steps.
- Insert the stripped wires into the butt connectors in the wire pigtail from the pump. Firmly crimp each splice with crimping plier to tightly hold the wires In place. Attention: Please pay attention to correct matching when wiring an extension cable.
- Winding the waterproof electrical tape on the butt splice connections of three strands of wire.
- Winding the waterproof electrical tape over wire.
