3.2.4Underwater Lighting GFCI Wiring

CAUTION

A Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) must be provided in high voltage pool/spa lights. Do not use a GFCI circuit breaker.The conductors on the load side of the GFCI circuit shall not occupy conduit, boxes, or enclosures containing other conductors unless the other conductors are also on the load side of a GFCI. Refer to local codes for complete details.

1.For a Standard Power Center, install an appropriately rated GFCI receptacle next to the breaker panel. For a Sub-Panel Power Center install an appropriately rated GFCI receptacle in the Power Center (use the knockout provided on the right side of the Sub-Panel Power Center). See Figure 4.

2.Connect neutral and hot wire (from circuit breaker) to the LINE side of the GFCI.

3.Connect neutral (white wire) and the hot (black wire) from the light to the LOAD side of the GFCI.

4.Connect ground from the light to the grounding bar inside the Power Center.

3.2.5Jandy Pool and Spa Lights Wiring

The Jandy Pool and Spa Lights can be wired into the Jandy AquaLink RS control system to ensure simplified operation of the lights, as well as a means to synchronize the color change function. Connect the lights to one of the auxiliary relays in the Power Center.

NOTE It is recommended to connect one light per relay so each light can be controlled separately. However, up to four lights can be connected on a single relay. If there are more than four lights installed on one AquaLink RS system, ensure there is more than one auxiliary relay available in the Power Center.

Refer to Figures 5 and 6 to connect the Jandy Pool and Spa Lights to the Power Center.

NOTE The Jandy Pool and Spa Lights are available in 120-volt and 12-volt versions. If installing a

12-volt light, a 120-volt/12-volt step-down (AC) transformer, listed/certified for the application must be used. For more information about 12- volt installations, refer to the Jandy Digital,Color Changing,Underwater Pool and Spa Lights Installation and Operation Manual.
