Electrical Connections

1. Check the pump label for proper voltage required. Do not connect to voltage other than
that shown.
2. If pump is supplied with a 3-prong electrical plug, the third prong is to ground the pump to
prevent possible electrical shock hazard. DO NOT REMOVE the third prong from the plug. A
separate branch circuit is recommended.
Do not use an extension cord. Do not cut plug from the cord. If the plug is cut or the cord is
shortened, then this action will void the warranty.
3. Check local electrical and building codes before installation. The installation must be in
accordance with their regulations as well as the most recent National Electrical Code (NEC).
4. To conform to the National Electrical Code all pumps must be wired with 14 AWG or
larger wire. For runs to 250', 14 AWG wire is sufficient. For longer runs, consult a qualified
electrician or the factory.
5. Pump should be connected or wired to its own circuit with no other outlets or equipment in
the circuit line. Fuses and circuit breaker should be of ample capacity in the electrical circuit.
6. The flexible PVC 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 and mounted outside of
the basin and comply with the National Electrical Code.
7. The 6EC-CIA-RF AND 10EC-CIA-RF pumps have automatic switches with piggyback
plugs on the switch cords. Pump must be plugged into piggyback switch cord for
automatic operation.
