[LaMorgan]

When installing a PENTAIR Spabrite or Aqualight underwater light, safety is paramount. Always have a licensed electrician handle the installation, adhering strictly to the National Electrical Code and local regulations. Before starting any work, shut off the power at the circuit breaker. Ensure you follow the specific installation instructions in the manual to the letter to prevent any electrical hazards. For wiring the light to the Junction Box, connect the black wire to power, the white wire to common, and the green wire to ground. If the light has a 2-conductor cord, connect the black wire to power and the white wire to common. Always secure the Junction Box cover after wiring. When replacing the light fixture or the lamp, confirm the pool meets all electrical code requirements beforehand. Use only genuine Pentair Aquatic Systems wet niches to ensure proper bonding and grounding. Always disconnect the power at the circuit breaker before replacing a lamp, and follow the specific lamp replacement instructions. Finally, use a new lens gasket whenever you reassemble the light to prevent water leakage and potential electrical issues. Adhering to these guidelines ensures a safe and compliant installation of your PENTAIR Spabrite or Aqualight, providing you with years of enjoyment.
