Electrical Requirements for swimming pool
Reduce risk of wound due to electrocution from subsurface lighting or other electrical plans.
Guideline
All electrical devices, including ground fault circuit interrupters,
must be installed in all swimming pools in unity with the BC Electrical Code
Surviving pools that are unable to comply with this requirement should discontinue
he use of underwater lighting by physically severing the circuits.
Workers should test ground fault interrupters at least monthly and rectify any problems
that are found directly.
Extension cords must not be used in the pool area if they are run from plugs
that are not designed to be used in wet areas.
