Good morning,
So I’m working on an existing 3 phase solar system and the customer wants a way to use the huge mass of exported solar on their pool.
So currently looking at possibly using MyEnergi Eddi’s or something similar to power a 3 phase heater element (probably split into 3 single...
Hi,
I'm trying to understand legislation in the UK for using an air pump in conjunction with a swimming pool with regards creating and supplying a product utilising compressed air in a swimming pool as a commercial product.
My understanding of the regs is that as long as the air pump /...
contractors have installed a pool cover and have situated the isolator and the junction box at just above 2.5m but the conduit running between them with the 230v cable in it goes down to 2.47m at its lowest point.
Is that allowed or is it pedantic?
please see poorly drawn diagram for more...
Not sure I'm posting in the right place but:
We had a pool built. There are 5 LED waterfalls installed. The LED strips can toggle between 5 colors. The middle LED strip started malfunctioning. Initially the white color had a mild pink hue, now it only shows Green, Red, Blue. When choosing white...
Hi all
Back in July last year I installed a new pool pump/motor. The problem is it's now making a humming noise and trips the breaker.
I initially thought it was the capacitor, but opened up the back to find there is no capacitor. Didi a little research and thought maybe it was a shaded pole...
Any ideas for an appropriate wall heater for school swimming pool changing rooms? (well detached from pool area but will still have wet bodies in obviously)
Got to be reasonably well protected from abuse
They have currently got twin tubular heaters with steel cages over the top, but the heat...
Need some help please. Got a brain teaser for my first post. My pool pump motor cratered over 4th of July. It was working fine and started to sound like it had gravel in it. I turned it off at the timer to backwash and the breaker tripped. She was locked up. Since it was 8 years old I took it to...
Installing a small above ground pool with a 1/2HP 120v pool pump. The house is older and has no grounding system that I can tell. Outlets are two prong. I know I need a gfci outlet to plug pump into but will this be safe and work as intended with no grounding system and only a hot and neutral...
Hi All,
We've done some electrical in the past. Wired our outdoor kitchen, added an electric heater to our porch, etc.
We are pretty new to pool stuff. We currently have a next to house patio that they thought ahead on and ran 1" conduit under. We also have a shed that's wired for lights and a...
Hi,
I hope that someone here might be able to put my mind at rest. I have an engineering mind and a reasonable understanding of electical work, but I'm not confident on this area and want to ensure the safety of my family.
I purchased a bestway splasher pool a few years ago (holds around...
Pool electrical is fed from a secondary sub panel that is fed from another sub panel coming off the main service entrance panel.
I have verified that neutral is only bonded to ground at the main service panel. Neutral is not bonded to ground at any of the sub panels.
Folks have been feeling a...
I have a 10kw heat pump for my above ground swimming pool. I was wondering if possible what sort of turbine I would need to run it so as to keep costs down?
This is a general wonderment at the moment
I incorrectly posted this on the "electrician's forum" and got a bit of a cold shoulder.
Looking for some tips on supplying my pool equipment (2kw heater, 1hp pump, 1.6kw swim jet, 12w led light) with power.

Hi all,
Looking for some tips on supplying my pool equipment (2kw heater, 1hp pump, 1.6kw swim jet, 12w led light) with power.
My house has a 30amp electrical switched spur waiting for this job. I would like to run a 16mm 4-core SWA cable from it to end on other side of garden (30meters)...
I need 6 switching light circuits to control 12V LED light in Zone 1 of a pool, the problem is that Zone 1 is as you open the door to the building.
I been thinking about using a 230v to 12v transformer in the plant room to a grid switch near the pool. This could switch 12v to a 230v contactor...
Hi there all
I have a quick question. My garden supply CU has a 100A AC RCD as main switch - off that is my greenhouse supply circuit. Then a 63A AC RCD which protects 7 circuits, one of which is a pool heater. I am replacing the old heater and the new one requires residual DC protection...
I have a Ge 125 amp 12/24 load center being installed in my pool shed roughly 80 ft away from the main electrical panel on the house.
The plan is to backfeed the panel with a 100 amp breaker to function as a service disconnect.
I will be running a 20 amp circuit from this sub panel to a garage...
