Section 1: Installing a mounting bracket and light fixture during new vinyl
pool construction
A. Preparatory steps which must be completed by the electrician before light is installed,
see Figure 1.
1. Be sure the electrical system of the pool conforms with the requirements of the current
National Electrical Code (NEC) and all local codes and ordinances. A licensed or certified
electrician must install the electrical system to meet or exceed those requirements before
the Nicheless Light is installed. Some of the requirements of the NEC are listed below.
a. The lighting circuit must have a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), and have an
appropriately rated
circuit breaker.
b. The junction box (or, for
12 volt models, the low
voltage transformer) is
located at least 12
inches above water
level, and at least 48
inches from the edge of
the pool, see Figure 1.
c. The light fixture and all
metal items within five
(5) feet of the pool must
be properly electrically
bonded.

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR ELECTROCUTION
This Nicheless light fixture must be installed by a licensed or certified electrician or
a qualified pool serviceman in accordance with the National Electrical Code and all
applicable local codes and ordinances. Improper installation will create an electrical
hazard which could result in death or serious injury to pool users, installers or
others due to electrical shock and may also cause damage to property. Always
disconnect power to the pool light at the circuit breaker before servicing the light.
Failure to do so could result in death or serious injury to serviceman, pool users or
others due to electrical shock.
