Section 3. Installing Jandy Light
During New Construction
WARNING
Risk of Electrical Shock or Electrocution.
This underwater light must be installed by a
licensed or certified electrician or a qualified
pool serviceman in accordance with the National
Electrical Code and all applicable local codes and
ordinances. Improper installation will create an
electrical hazard, which could result in death or
serious injury to pool or spa users, installers or
others due to electrical shock, and may also cause
damage to property.
Always disconnect the power to the color light at
the circuit breaker before installing or servicing
the light. Failure to do so could result in death or
serious injury to serviceman, pool or spa users or
others due to electrical shock.
3.1
Preparing the Light Fixture for
Installation
NOTE:
The electrician must complete preparatory steps
before light fixture is installed. See Figure 1.
Ensure that the pool meets the requirements of the
current National Electrical Code
ordinances. A licensed or certified electrician must install
the electrical system to meet or exceed those requirements
before the underwater light is installed.
WARNING
Risk of Electrical Shock or Electrocution
which could result in serious injury or death. A
Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for 120
Volt transformers should be used if required by
the transformer manufacturer or if required by
the local applicable code and/or Authority Having
Jurisdiction (AHJ). When a GFCI is used, the
conductors on the load side of the GFCI circuit
shall not occupy conduit boxes, or enclosures
containing other conductors unless the additional
conductors are also protected by a GFCI. Refer to
local codes for complete details.
Some of the requirements of the National Electrical
Code, which the pool or spa's electrical systems must
meet, are as follows:
•
The Junction Box (or, for 12 volt models, the low
voltage transformer) must be located at least eight
(8) inches above water level, at least four (4) inches
above ground level or pool deck level, and at least
four (4) feet from the edge of the pool or spa; see
Figure 1 for pools and Figure 2 for spas.
and all local codes and
®
•
The light fixture and all metal items within five (5)
feet of the pool or spa must be properly electrically
bonded to a reliable point of grounding.
•
The wet niche must be properly installed so that the
top edge of the underwater light's lens is at least 18
inches below the surface of the water in the pool or
spa; see Figure 1 or 2.
National Electrical Code
®
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 pool and spa
bonding requirements.
NOTE:
To be certain that the pool's electrical system meets
all applicable requirements, the electrician should also
consult the local building department.
