d. The mounting bracket and mounting hub must be
properly installed so that the top edge of the face ring
of the Nicheless Light is at least 18 inches below the
surface of the water in the pool. The top of the face
ring will line up with the center of the Plastic Mounting
Hub, see Figure 1 on page 3.
e. The mounting bracket (not shown) and mounting hub
must be properly electrically bonded and grounded via
the No. 8 AWG ground connector located at the upper
left mounting bolt positioned, see Figure 2.
2. To be certain that the pool's electrical system meets all
applicable requirements, you should also consult the local
building department.
3. Use only Pentair Nicheless Fixtures, (Mounting Bracket
Assembly), to ensure proper bonding and grounding
connections.

B. Perform the following steps after the electrical system requirements are met
(see Section 1A (page 3) for requirements)
1.
Locate position on a vertical wall where light is to be installed. The top of the light face ring
must be 18 inches below normal water level as required by NEC Article 680.
2.
Cut or punch a three (3) inch diameter hole through pool wall with center 18 inches below
normal water level for mounting hub and mounting bracket installation.
3.
If using plastic conduit, install PVC conduit adapter (provided) before installing plastic
mounting hub. Use only recommended sealant for PVC/ABS threads. Position mounting hub
over hole with the word “TOP” at the top, and secure with mounting flange and two (2) hex
nuts and lock washers. Tighten hex nuts evenly with equal torque.
NOTE:
Attach the stainless steel mounting bracket temporarily to ABS mounting hub.
Perfect top and bottom alignment of ABS hub will be easier.
CAUTION:
Remove mounting bracket before liner is installed. Failure to
remove mounting bracket can damage the liner during installation.
