[StMargaret]

Installing a PENTAIR Spabrite & Aqualight underwater light requires adherence to crucial safety measures. First, the installation should be performed by a qualified electrician, compliant with both the National Electrical Code and local regulations. Always cut off the power supply at the circuit breaker before beginning any work on the light. Use the installation methods specified in the manual to prevent electrical risks. For proper wiring to the Junction Box, connect the black wire to the power source, the white wire to the common terminal, and the green wire to the ground. For lights with two-conductor cords, connect the black wire to power and the white wire to common. Secure the Junction Box cover after wiring is complete. When replacing the light fixture or lamp, ensure your pool meets all electrical code prerequisites. Always use Pentair Aquatic Systems wet niches to ensure proper bonding and grounding. Disconnect power at the circuit breaker before changing the lamp, and follow the instructions provided. Replace the lens gasket whenever reassembling the light to prevent leaks and potential hazards. Following these guidelines ensures a safe and effective installation of your PENTAIR Spabrite & Aqualight.
