Voltage
Voltage at motor must be not more than 10% above or
below motor nameplate 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/Bonding
Install, ground, bond and wire motor according to local
or National Electrical Code requirements.
Permanently ground motor. Use green ground terminal
provided under motor canopy or access plate (See Fig.
3); use size and type wire required by code. Connect
motor ground terminal to electrical service ground.
Bond motor to pool structure. Use a solid copper
conductor, size No. 8 AWG (8.4 sq.mm) or larger. Run
wire from external bonding lug (see Fig. 3) to reinforcing
rod or mesh.
Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 sq.mm) solid copper
GROUND
Figure 3 – Typical ground screw and bonding lug
locations.
bonding wire to the pressure wire connector provided
on the motor housing and to all metal parts of the
swimming pool, spa, or hot tub and to all electrical
equipment, metal piping or conduit within 5 feet (1.5 m)
of the inside walls of swimming pool, spa, or hot tub.
Wiring
Pump must be permanently connected to circuit (see
Figure 4A and 4B); be sure no other lights or appliances
are on the same circuit. Match wire sizes to Table I
(Pg. 6).
NOTICE: To prevent dirt, rain, bugs, etc., from entering
motor when not wiring with conduit, be sure to seal wire
opening on end of motor.
Use Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) as master
on-off switch; it will sense a short circuit to ground and
disconnect power before it becomes dangerous to pool
users. Test according to maker's instructions.

In case of power outage, check GFCI for tripping (which
will prevent normal water circulation). Reset if
necessary.
Risk of dangerous or fatal electrical shock.
Be sure that power to the motor circuit is off before
working on wiring, wiring connections, or motor. Re-
install the motor end cover and all other wiring covers
before turning on the power.
1. Turn off power.
2. Remove the motor end cover.
To Wire a Single Speed, Single Voltage Motor
There are two terminals labeled L1 and L2. Attach the
power leads to these terminals. Either wire may attach to
either terminal.
To Wire a Dual-Voltage Motor
Dual voltage motors have a plug to change from 230
volts (factory setting) to 115 volts.
1. If you have 230 volts motor supply voltage, confirm
that the plug is set for 230 volts. The arrow on the
plug will point to the 230 volt position. Note that plug
only connects with one prong in this position.
2. If you have 115 volt supply, pull the plug straight up
and place it on the two brass prongs as shown.
NOTE: Arrow is highlighted for clarity.
