PREINSTALLATION CHECK LIST
1. To reduce the risk of elec tri cal shock, a prop er ly ground ed
receptacle of grounding type must be in stalled and pro tect ed
by a ground fault circuit in ter rupt er (GFCI) and in ac cor dance
with National Electrical Code and lo cal codes.
2. Make certain that the receptacle is with in the reach of the pump’s
pow er supply cord. DO NOT USE AN EX TEN SION CORD.
Extension cords that are too long or too light do not deliver
suf cient voltage to the pump motor. But more im por tant, they
could present a safety hazard if the insulation were to become
damaged or the con nec tion end were to fall into the sump.
3. Testing for Ground. As a safety mea sure, each elec tri cal outlet
should be checked for ground using an Un der writ ers Lab o ra to ry
Listed circuit analyzer which will in di cate if the pow er, neutral
and ground wires are correctly con nect ed to your out let. If they
are not, call a qualifi ed elec tri cian.
4. For Added Safety. Pump must be con nect ed to a 3-prong
ground ed outlet in ter rupt er de vice (ground fault cir cuit in ter -
rupt er).
5. FOR YOUR PROTECTION, ALWAYS DIS CON NECT PUMP

phase pumps are supplied with a 3-prong ground ed plug to help
protect you against the pos si bil i ty of elec tri cal shock. DO NOT,
UNDER ANY CIR CUM STANC ES, RE MOVE THE GROUND
PIN. To re duce the risk of electrical shock, a properly grounded
re cep ta cle of ground ing type must be installed and pro tect ed
by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) in ac cor dance with

fuses or circuit breakers of proper ca pac i ty. A sep a rate branch
circuit is rec om mend ed, sized ac cord ing to the National Elec-
