Light niche and any metallic items in a 5’ (152 cm) radius must be properly bonded with #8 AWG grounding wire.
1.Connect rigid conduit to the 3/4” hub located at the back of the light niche and run to a water resistant junction box (or for 12 volt models to a low voltage transformer) no further than 25’ (7.6m). Remember this is a water cooled light, so the conduit and all connections must be leakproof.
2.Feed the light cord through the rigid conduit to the junction box, leav- ing at least 4 feet of cord at the end of the light fixture. This slack in the light cord will allow servicing without draining the spa in the fu- ture.
3.Wrap light cord slack around back of light housing and attach light to niche with mounting screw.
4.Cut the cord at the junction box, leaving at least 6” (15 cm) of cord to make connections.
5.Strip 6” (15 cm) of the out cord jacket to expose the three insulat- ed wires. Be careful not to damage the insulation on the three inner wires.
6.Connect the three wires to the corresponding circuit wires in the junc- tion box and secure the junction box cover in place.
7.Replace the light assembly in the niche and tighten the special pilot screw.
8.Fill the spa until the underwater light is completely submerged in wa- ter before operating the light for more than 10 seconds. Turn on the main switch or circuit breaker, as well as the spa light control, to check for proper operation
Important: Make sure spa light is submerged in at least 18” of water prior to testing.
