BONDING
Because all metals have different electrical potentials, ALL metal
and electrical components of the pool system must be bonded
together.
This includes the metal framework of the pool, lights, pump,
filter, heater, any automatic chlorine generator and any other metal or
electrical equipment. On some older pools, this substructure bond wire may
not exist. In this case, a 6 to 8 ft. copper rod must be driven into the
ground near the pool equipment and all electrical and metal components
must be bonded to the rod. A bonding lug is furnished on the side of the
control box of the heater for the bond wire to be attached.
Warranty will
be void if system is not properly bonded.
