*Assumes three (3) copper conductors in a buried conduit and 3% maximum voltage loss in branch circuit. All National Electrical Code
local codes must be followed. Table shows minimum wire size and branch fuse recommendations for a typical installation per NEC.

1.
Using a hand cutter tool, cut the plastic bars
connecting the top and bottom sets of spacers, as
shown in Figure 6.
2.
Push the two top spacers and two bottom spacers
out of the base.
3.
Align the pins in the four spacers with the holes in
the base. Snap the spacers into place (Fig. 7).

Electrical Installation
3.3.1
Voltage Checks
The correct voltage, as specified on the pump data plate,
is necessary for proper performance and long motor
life. Incorrect voltage will decrease the pump's ability to
perform and could cause overheating, reduce the motor life,
and result in higher electric bills.
It is the responsibility of the electrical installer to provide
data plate operating voltage to the pump by ensuring
proper circuit sizes and wire sizes for this specific
application.
The National Electrical Code
requires all pool pump circuits be protected with a
Ground Fault Interrupter (GFCI). Therefore, it is also
the responsibility of the electrical installer to ensure that
the pump circuit is in compliance with this and all other
applicable requirements of the National Electrical Code
(NEC) and any other applicable installation codes.
Failure to provide data plate voltage (+/- 10%) during
operation will cause the motor to overheat and void
the warranty.
3.3.2
Bonding and Grounding
In addition to being properly grounded as described in
the Electrical Wiring section, and in accordance with
the requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC),
or in Canada the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC),
the pump motor must be bonded to all metal parts of
the swimming pool, spa or hot tub structure and to all
electrical components and equipment associated with
the pool/spa water circulation system.The bonding must
be accomplished by using a solid copper conductor, No.
8 AWG or larger. In Canada No. 6 AWG or larger must
be used. Bond the motor using the external bonding lug
provided on the motor frame. See Figure 8.
Always disconnect the power source before working
on a motor or its connected load.
