Electrical Connections

Risk of severe injury or death by electrical shock.
• Always disconnect the electrical power before touching the pump or discharge.
• Some pumps are supplied with lead wires and are intended to be hardwired using a junction box or
other approved enclosure. The pumps include a grounding connector. To reduce risk of electric
shock, be certain that it is properly connected to ground.
• Some pumps are supplied with a grounding conductor and grounding-type attachment plug. To
reduce risk of electric shock, be certain that it is connected only to a properly grounded grounding-
type receptacle. Do not remove the third prong from the plug. The third prong is to ground the pump
to help prevent possible electric shock hazard.
• Check electrical outlets with a circuit analyzer to ensure power, neutral, and ground wires are prop-
erly connected. If not, a qualified, licensed electrician should correct the problem.
• The flexible jacketed cord assembly mounted to the pump must not be modified in any way, with the
exception of shortening the cord to fit into a control panel. Any splice between the pump and the
control panel must be made within a junction box mounted outside of the basin and comply with the
National Electrical Code.
• Do not use the power cord for lifting the pump.
• Do not remove the third prong from the plug, or cut plug from cord. These actions will void the war-
ranty.
• Do not use an extension cord.
Wiring Guidelines
• Check the pump label for proper voltage required. Do not connect to voltage other than that shown.
• Connect to a circuit equipped with a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) device if required by code.
• The pump should be connected or wired to its own circuit, with no other electric receptacles or equip-
ment in the circuit.
• The fuses or circuit breaker should be of ample capacity in the electrical circuit.
