GLOBRITE™ LIGHT FIXTURE INSTALLATION
(NEW POOL CONSTRUCTION - CANADA)
Be sure
the electrical system of your pool conforms with the following requirements
of the Canadian Electrical Code (CE), and all local codes and ordinances. A licensed
or certified electrician must install the electrical system to meet or exceed those
requirements before the light and (fixture-housing) is installed. Some of the CE
requirements are listed below.
•
The junction/deck box must be sealed to the conduit to prevent water from
getting into the box, see Figure 2 on page 7.
•
The niche must be properly installed so the center line of the Underwater Light's
lens is at a maximum depth of 600 mm below the surface of the water in the
pool, see Figure 2 on page 7.
•
For non-metallic conduit, a No. 8 AWG bonding/grounding wire must be installed
through the conduit from the Junction Box to the bonding/grounding lug inside
the niche. Seal the wire/lug connection with a listed sealant to protect the
connection from possible pool water corrosion. See Figure 2 on page 7.
The following information is for the Junction Box and pool deck location for Canada only.
Junction/Deck boxes shall be installed:
(a) above the normal water level of the pool;
(b) so that the top of the box is located at or above the finished level of the pool deck;
(c) in such a manner or location that the box will not be an obstacle; and
(d) in such a manner that any water on the deck will drain away from the box
(See diagram below).
