6. Screw the mounting bracket onto the mounting
surface with the four (4) screws provided.
CAUTION
FOR YOUR SAFETY: Make sure to perform the
following step BEFORE mounting the enclosure
onto the mounting bracket, otherwise, damage to
the threaded hole of the mounting bracket may
occur.
7. Open the front cover of the controller and locate
the fastening hole under the ground bar. Drill a
3/16" hole through the plastic enclosure.
8. Line up the slot in the controller enclosure with
the guide in the mounting bracket and hook on to
mount.
9. Secure the controller enclosure to the mounting
bracket with the single fine thread Phillips screw
provided.
10. Plug into the GFCI outlet.

Bonding the Power Center
In addition to being properly grounded per this
installation manual, and in accordance with the
requirements of the National Electrical Code (NEC),
or in Canada the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC),
the power center must be bonded to all metal parts
of the swimming pool or hot tub structure and to all
electrical components and equipment associated with
the pool water circulation system. The bonding must be
accomplished by using a solid copper conductor, No. 8
AWG or larger. In Canada No. 6 AWG or larger must be
used. Bond the power center using the external bonding
lug provided on the outer frame.
National Electrical Code® (NEC®) requires bonding
of the Pool Water. Where none of the bonded pool
equipment, structures, or parts are in direct connection
with the pool water; the pool water shall be in direct
contact with an approved corrosion-resistant conductive
surface that exposes not less than 5800 mm² (9 in²)
of the surface area to the pool water at all times.
The conductive surface shall be located where it is
not exposed to physical damage or dislodgement
during usual pool activities, and it shall be bonded in
accordance with the bonding requirements of NEC
Article 680. Refer to locally enforced codes for any
additional bonding requirements.

Plug In Assignment
The following call-outs display the plug in assignments
of the pool equipment.
A
B
A - Filtration Pump: (120 VAC, 60Hz, 10A Max)
B (Aux 2) - Saltwater Chlorinator / Water Sanitizer:
(120 VAC, 60Hz, 3A Max)
C (Aux 2) & D (Aux 3) - Low Voltage Light Transformer:
(120 VAC, 60Hz, 1A Max)
Section 5. Low Voltage Wiring
All low voltage wiring should be run through the
knockouts in the low voltage compartment (right side of
controller enclosure).
Never run high voltage and low voltage
IMPORTANT:
in the same conduit.

Wire the Temperature Sensors
Wire the temperature sensors on the 10-pin green
connector. The air temperature sensor is factory-installed
on the 10-pin green connector (pins 7,8). The water
temperature sensor and necessary installation hardware
is included.
5.2
Install the Water Temperature Sensor
1. Drill a hole (3/8") for mounting the water
temperature sensor line in the pipe between the
pump and the filter (before the heater).
2. Install the O-ring on the sensor and insert the
sensor into the hole. Wrap and tighten metal
clamp around the pipe to secure sensor.
3. Feed the sensor wire through the black low
voltage wiring knockout.
4. Strip 1/4" of insulation and separate the wires.
5. Connect sensor wires to pins 5 and 6 of the 10-pin
green connector.
