@MasterChief-sl9ro6 жыл бұрын
It's code. The bond wire can not have any breaks in it as well. Has to be one contentious run. Must also have a path back to the source. That being the transformer feeding service. So no ground rod only crap. As that would be an electrical hazard...

You can use a variable speed pump for above ground pool. If you are concerned about being too powerful for the filter you can buy the smallest one and being variable speed you can set the pump speed (except for when it primes). Pentair Intelliflow comes in a 1.5 hp and works on 115V. You will also be able to get an energystar rebate on it dropping the price to around what a single speed costs. At least right now while those rebates are available.

my pump has a ground connector to run a separate recommended number 8 bare copper wire to ground; my question is, if I run the wire to normal ground do I need to connect it to a rod that is driven 8 feet into the ground ????? I am trying to drive a copper rod near by where the pump will be but I have only done half of it and it seems stuck already! My pump is a Hayward Super Pump at 1.5 HP and it will be using a 20 amp dedicated circuit I ran from the breaker box to the back of the patio. One thing I notice is the GFCI breaker, I may switch mines for those, the pump is on its own and there is a second 20 amp circuit ending in a GFCI box for regular electricity around the pool. Thanks for any advise!

Is what the local masculinity has in their codes, they can adopt the NEC, part or in whole remove part add their own etc and per a specific year, if adopted only up to NEC 2008 code anything after would not apply to that jurisdiction etc. So one city ordnance may require pool bonding another may not yet. But is for all permanent installed above and in ground pools, spa;'s etc. everything must be bonded that is metal back to a common single point, including the pool, the water, the pump, any metal deck components, and pool fencing some times.

I guess TOH haven't done nothing recently, lately they just recycle old videos. Saw this one a few years ago.
