MAGICBOWL WATER EFFECT Installation and User’s Guide
3
The following describes how to install the MagicBowl Water Effect niche.
Be sure that the pool or spa meets the requirements of the current National Electrical
Code (NEC) Article 680-22 and all local codes and ordinances. A licensed or certified
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’s electrical system must meet are as follows:
•
The lighting circuit has a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) for
120 VAC line voltage models, and has an appropriately rated circuit
breaker. 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.
•
The Junction Box and the low voltage transformer is located at least
4 in (10.16 cm) above ground level or 8 in (20.3 cm) above maximum
water level in the bowl, whichever is higher. The Junction Box must be
at least 48 in (1.22 m) from the edge of the pool.
•
To be certain that the pool or spa electrical system meets all
applicable requirements, the electrician should also consult the local
building department.
BEFORE STARTING: The following instructions must be completed by the
electrician before the FireFX™ LED Light fixture is installed.
