Suction inlets must be designed so that water is drawn simultaneously. A vacuum relief device can be installed in line

leading to the pump suction.

All suction outlet covers must conform to ASME/ANSI A112.19.18M; or must be a minimum 18 x 23 grate or larger;

or must have an approved channel drain system. Skimmers are exempted. All pool and spa single or multiple outlet

circulation systems shall be equipped with an atmospheric vacuum relief system. The system must be ASME/ANSI

A112.19.17 Rated.

Any pool or spa shall immediately be closed if the cover or grate is damaged or missing.

Suction outlet covers/grates shall be tested and listed by a nationally recognized testing laboratory as conforming to

ASME/ANSI A112.19.8

ELECTRICAL

Ground the motor before connecting to electrical power supply. Failure to ground the motor may cause

severe or fatal electrical shock hazard. Never ground to a gas supply line.

To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn OFF power to motor before working on electrical

connections.

Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) tripping indicates an electrical problem. If GFCI trips and will not

reset, have a qualified electrician inspect and repair electrical system.

Verify that supply voltage matches the nameplate voltage. Incorrect voltage can cause fire or seriously

damage motor and voids warranty.

Voltage

Voltage at motor must be within 10% of the motor nameplate rated voltage or motor may overheat, causing overload

tripping and reduced component life. If voltage does not fall within the specified range during operation consult the

power company.

Grounding/Bonding

Install, ground, bond and wire motor according to local or National Electrical Code requirements. Permanently

ground the motor. Use the ground terminal provided in the terminal box on the back of the motor. Use size and type

wire required by local codes. Connect motor ground terminal to electrical service ground.

Bond motor to pool structure. Use a solid copper conductor, size No. 8 AWG or larger. Run wire from external

bonding lug to reinforcing rod or mesh.

Connect a No. 8 AWG 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 of the inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.

Wiring

Follow all national and local wiring codes. If unsure of the code requirements, consult a professional electrician.

Pump must be permanently connected to circuit. See Figures ** for wiring connection diagrams. Match wire and

circuit breaker sizes to correct fusing and wiring data chart. If other lights or appliances are also on the same circuit,

be sure to add their amp loads to pump amp load. If unsure, consult a licensed electrician.
