Voltage
Voltage at motor MUST NOT be more than 10% above or below motor name plate rated voltage, or motor may
overheat, causing overload tripping and reduced component life. If voltage is less than 90% or more than 110% of
rated voltage when motor is running at full load, consult Power Company.
Grounding And Bonding
Install, ground, bond, and wire motor in accordance with local or national electrical code requirements.
Permanently ground motor. Use green ground terminal provided under motor canopy or access place; use size and
type wire required by code. Connect motor ground terminal to electrical service ground.
Bond motor to pool structure. Bonding will connect all metal parts within and around the pool with a continuous
wire. Bonding reduces the risk of a current passing between bonded metal objects, which could potentially cause
electrical shock if grounded or shorted. Reference NEC codes for all wiring standards including, but not limited
to, grounding, bonding and general wiring procedures.
Use a solid copper conductor, size 8 or larger. Run wire from external bonding lug to reinforcing rod or mesh.
Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 mm
2
) solid copper bonding wire to the pressure wire connector provided on the motor
housing and to all metal parts of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub, and to all electrical equipment, metal piping
(except gas piping), and conduit within 5 ft. (1.5 m) of inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.
Wiring
NOTICE – A licensed electrician must do all wiring.
Pump MUST be permanently connected to circuit. If other lights or appliances are also on the same circuit, be
sure to add their amp loads before calculating wire and circuit breaker sizes. Use the load circuit breaker as the
Master On-Off switch.
Install a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) in circuit; it will sense a short-circuit to ground and disconnect power
before it becomes dangerous to pool users. For size of GFCI required and test procedures for GFCI, see
manufacturer’s instructions. Pump MUST be permanently connected to GFCI. In case of a power outage, check GFCI
for tripping, which will prevent normal pump operation. Reset if necessary.
Start-Up & Operation
WARNING – Separation Hazard – Failure to Open all suction and discharge valves could result in severe
personal injury. To avoid OPEN all suction and discharge valves, as well as filter air relief valve (if available) on
filter, when starting the circulating pump system.
Starting/Priming the Pump:
Pumps with single speed motors are self priming to 10 ft. and pumps with 2 speed motors are self priming to 10 ft. on
high speed only. Fill strainer housing with water to suction pipe level. If water leakage occurs from anywhere on the
pump or filter, DO NOT start the pump. If no leakage occurs, stand at least 10 feet from pump and/or filter and
proceed with starting the pump.
WARNING – Separation Hazard- Failure to do wait to close filter manual air relief valve until a steady stream of water (not air
or air and water) is discharged from valve could result in severe personal injury. To avoid wait for a steady stream of water.
