Electrical Safety - Atlantic TidalWave A-05 Manual De Operación

Electrical Safety

• Electrical wiring should be installed by a qualified electrician in accor-
dance with all applicable safety regulations. Incorrect wiring can lead
to a pump malfunction, electrical shock or fire.
• Pumps should operate on a designated, circuit rated at 15 Amps
(minimum).
• Pump must be protected by a ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI).
• Pump must be plugged into a standard, properly grounded, three
pronged outlet.
• Do not cut the electrical cable. If a cable with cut insulation or other
damage is submerged in water, there is danger of water seeping into
the pump motor and causing a short. This may result in damage to the
pump, electrical shock or fire. Altering the electrical cable in any way
will void the warranty.
• Never move or handle the pump by pulling on the electrical cable.
Make sure the electrical cable does not become excessively bent or
twisted, does not rub against a structure in a way that might damage it,
and does not come in contact with heated surfaces.
Operation
• In case of a power outage, turn off the power to the pump to avoid
having it start unexpectedly when the power is restored.
• Pay careful attention to the water level while the pump is operating.
Dry operation may cause the pump to malfunction. Pump must always
operate while fully submersed.
• In case of very excessive vibration, unusual noise or odor, turn off the
power immediately and consult with your nearest dealer. Continuing to
operate the pump under abnormal conditions may result in electrical
leakage, electrical shock or fire.
