EasyTouch Load Center High Voltage Connections

The EasyTouch load center enclosure includes a 125/220 VAC 125 AMP circuit breaker base (sub- panel), high-voltage power relays, transformer, and low voltage circuit breakers.

WARNING - BEFORE REMOVING THE HIGH VOLTAGE COVER PANEL FROM THE ENCLOSURE switch the main power OFF into the home at the main circuit breaker box. Also, switch OFF the main power to the EasyTouch load center before removing the high voltage cover panel to access the low voltage raceway.

EasyTouch Load Center Location

Before installing the EasyTouch load center read the following guidelines:

•AC power for the EasyTouch load center must be provided from the main circuit breaker panel located at the house.

•All electrical equipment, except for UL Listed spa-side remote switches, must be installed at least five (5) feet from pool and/or spa, and comply with all national, state, and local codes (UL Listed spa-side remote switches may be installed at near waterline).

•Install the EasyTouch load center no less than five (5) feet from pool or spa near to the pumps, heater, valves, and sensors. Mount the enclosure outside or inside a pool equipment house or other enclosure.

•Before choosing the final location for the EasyTouch load center, consider the length of the wires and valve wires that have to be connected to the enclosure. Make sure to consider cable lengths for the sensors to the EasyTouch load center location. The Air Temperature Sensor cable is 3 feet long and the Water Temperature Sensor is 25 feet long.

•Mount the EasyTouch load center on a flat vertical surface or wall so that the conduit knockouts are located at the bottom of the enclosure. Upper and lower brackets are provided to mount the enclosure to a vertical surface.

•DO NOT mount the EasyTouch load center enclosure horizontally. Water can enter the conduit knockouts and cause damage to the system and an electrical shock hazard.

•Consider the EasyTouch load center location when routing the conduit carrying the AC power to the EasyTouch load center, and the conduit that will be run to the high voltage equipment.

•Install the EasyTouch load center so that drainage is provided for all electrical components.

•Motors should have built-in thermal protection.

•Allow for unobstructed access to the front of the EasyTouch load center for the owner or service personnel.

•The EasyTouch load center provides grounding screw terminals for grounding all equipment. All equipment including the EasyTouch load center enclosure must be bonded to earth ground.
