It will have to be inspected. I had to change the pump wire to a #12 equipment ground with a twist lock type plug on a GFCI recepticle. The pool had to be bonded to the motor with a 8AWG solid copper wire. Alot to do and can end up to be costly if you can't do it yourself! Don't forget about the fence and/or ladder enclosure. This was a building permit and electrical permit. Again, can be somewhat expensive, but at least you will be legal if anything happened "God forbid," to anyone. </p>geraldpwTue, 09 Jun 2009 10:43:26 -0000http://ecmweb.com/nec/top2008neccxs_021909/#comment-9579483<p>Here it says that bonding is not required to service equipment. I have an "Astral" 1.5 hp above ground pool pump that does not have a bonding screw on the exterior of the pump so I am assuming that it is double insulated . The inspector is requiring me to connect to Equipment ground of pump circuit. The outlet is a single recepticle locking configuration type that only has UL wiring connections available and has no place to connect the #8 solid copper wire to. Where then is it to be connected to?</p>geraldpwWed, 20 May 2009 09:43:11 -0000
