A. Preparatory steps which must be completed by the electrician before the light fixture is installed:

1. Verify that the fountain meets the requirements of the current National Electrical Code and all local codes and ordinances.
A licensed or certified electrician must install the electrical system to meet or exceed those requirements before the
underwater light is installed.

2. Verify that the lighting circuit
has a Ground Fault Circuit
Interrupter (GFCI) for line
voltage models and has an
appropriately rated circuit
breaker.

3. The wet niche must be properly
installed so that the top of the
underwater light's lens is at
least 2 inches below the
surface of the water.

4. The wet niche must be properly
electrically bonded and
grounded via the #8 AWG
ground connector located at
the rear of the niche.

B. Steps to perform after the

electrical system requirements
are met:

1. Assemble the screws and nuts
to the stainless steel face ring
of the light being used. See
Figure 1.

2. Feed the cord through conduit
to the Junction Box, leaving
some length of cord at the
light fixture to coil around the
light. This length of cord around
the light allows the light to be
pulled out of the water and
serviced conveniently without having to disconnect the light from the J-Box.

3. Ensure that the length of exposed cord in the fountain is no more than 10 ft. (3 m).

4. Cut the cord at the Junction Box, leaving at least 6 inches of cord to make connections.

5. Strip 6 inches of the outer cord jacket to expose the three insulated wires – be careful not to damage the insulation
on the three inner wires.

6. Connect all three wires to the corresponding circuit wires in the Junction Box and secure the Junction Box cover
in place.

7. Place the light assembly into the niche and tighten special pilot screw.
