3.1 Power Center Mounting
1. The Power Center should be located at or
near the equipment pad. Locate the Power
Center at least fi ve (5) feet or more away
from pool/spa and fi ve (5) feet off the
ground. All na tion al, state, and local codes
are applicable.
NOTE For Canadian installations, the Power Center
must be at least three (3) meters (9.8 feet)
away from the pool/spa and 1.5 meters (5 feet)
above the ground.
2. Use the mounting brackets and instructions
provided with the Standard Power Center
and/or Sub-Panel Power Center.
3. Sub-Panel Power Centers have special
code requirements. Be sure to follow all
applicable local and state codes to insure
safe installation.
NOTE The Power Center is not to be considered
as suitable for use as Service Equipment.
Therefore, it is required to have the appropriate
means of disconnection, circuit isolation, and/or
branch circuit protection installed upstream of
the Power Center.

WARNING
Potentially high voltages in the AquaLink RS
Power Center can create dangerous electrical
hazards, possibly causing death, serious injury
or property damage. Turn off power at the main
circuit feeding the AquaLink RS Power Center to
disconnect the Power Center from the system.
Depending on the amount of equipment being
controlled, run ½" or larger conduit from the
power supply panel to the bottom of the Power
Center. If you are using the Sub-Panel Power
Center, wire power to the appropriate breakers.
Pull in ap pro pri ate wire for equipment. Each piece
of equipment requires its own high voltage relay.
Connect 120 volts to the Power Center terminals.
Connect equipment ground(s). See Figures 1 and 2.
