Installation • Electrical
Fittings
Fittings restrict flow; for best efficiency use fewest
possible fittings (but at least two suction outlets).
Avoid fittings which could cause an air trap.
Pool fittings must conform to International Association of
Plumbing and Mechanical Officials (IAPMO) standards.
Use only non-entrapping suction fitting or
double suction.
Electrical
Risk of electric shock . Can shock, burn or
kill. Ground pump before connecting to power supply.
• Ground motor before connecting to electrical power
supply. Failure to ground motor can cause severe or
fatal electrical shock hazard.
• To avoid dangerous or fatal electrical shock, turn
OFF power to motor before working on electrical
connections.
• Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) tripping
indicates an electrical problem. If GFCI trips and will
not reset, have a qualified electrician inspect and
repair electrical system.
• Exactly match supply voltage to nameplate voltage.
Incorrect voltage can cause fire or seriously damage
motor and voids warranty. If in doubt consult a
licensed electrician.
Risk of explosion . Do not ground to a gas
supply line.
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 Figure 3); use size and type wire required
by code. Connect motor ground terminal to electrical
service ground.
Connect a No. 8 AWG (8.4 sq.mm) solid copper bonding
wire to the bonding lug 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.

Two Speed Motor
These pump motors require that input power be
applied to specific terminals to obtain low or high
speed operation.
• To connect the motor for low speed operation, attach
the neutral lead to the L2 terminal and the hot lead
to the A terminal. See Figure 4.
Figure 4 - Wiring connections for multi-speed motor
• To connect the motor for high speed operation,
attach the neutral lead to the L2 terminal and the hot
lead to the L1 terminal.
