pool earthing

this is a video on how we do our pool earthing at Pro Image Electrical #poolearthing

Great video. Clear detailed explanation. Thanks

With a fibreglass pool, do you need to earth the reo bar inside the concrete surrounding pad of the pool..?

[@bertmonkey8457]

Glad I watched this video, the pool company and the concreters have said nothing about earthing... Just spoke to the sparky and "Oh yeah it got to be earthed!" lucky we haven't poured the concrete around the pool yet!

Do you consider an aluminium fence that’s screwed together as electrically continuous? As in you can earth one end and you’re golden?

My electrician said he wants to run the earth to the switch board. I should be able to save some $$ and have him just terminate at the filter circuit then. 👍🏻

Thanks for the video. If you use a non conductive grout around the spigot do you still require the earth bonding of the spigot.

[@proimageelectrical5295]

You can use a non conductive spigot

G'Day. How do you keep the spigot fixing slurry out of the 20mm conduit?

[@proimageelectrical5295]

Hi The cable gets buried in the slurry

Hi, What about the pool itself? Shouldn't you earth the pool concrete structure reinforcing steal mesh too? Cheers. Viktor

[@proimageelectrical5295]

Yes that also is earthed

I bought a property with a old concrete pool. Every time when I was kneeing at the side of the pool on the concrete path to clean the simmer box and had a little cut on my hand I had an electrical shock. I thought that the pool was not grounded properly, so ran a new 6mm earth cable from the earth steak to the pool shell rebars. It was still doing it. Than I replaced the earth steak to a 16mm 4m long steak. Nothing changed. Finally I worked out the issue. The concrete path steel meshes around the pool weren't grounded at all. I had to break up the path to find the meshes at least 15 places. Of course they didn't tie the meshes together when they did the concreting. Since I grounded all the meshes together to the pool bonding it stopped electrocuting me. The videos like yours truly help people. Thank you.

Thanks for the video but how do you test the earth if it's good or not?

[@mattwoods8907]

With a meter 0.5 ohms no greater resistance than that
