Preparing the Light Fixture for Installation

NOTE: The electrician must complete preparatory steps before light
fi xture is installed. See Figure 1.
Verify that the pool meets the requirements of the current National Electri-
cal Code
® (Canadian Electrical Code, in Canada)
ordinances. A licensed or certifi ed electrician must install the electrical
system to meet or exceed those requirements before the underwater light
is installed. Some of the requirements of the National Electrical Code,
which the pool electrical systems must meet, are as follows:
1. The junction box or the low-voltage transformer must be located
at least eight (8) inches (measured from the inside of the bottom of
the junction box or transformer) above the MAXIMUM water level,
OR at least four (4) inches above the ground level or pool deck,
whichever is greater. The junction box or transformer must also be
installed at least forty-eight (48) inches (4 ft.) from the edge of the
pool. See Figure 1.
2. A standard 1.5" plastic wall / return fi tting (not included) must be
installed so that the top edge of the underwater light's lens is at least
4 inches (10.2 cm) below the surface of the water in the pool.
See Figure 1.
NOTE: To be certain that the pool's electrical system meets all applicable
requirements, the electrician should also consult the local building
department.
