should be connected to a grounded
circuit equipped with a ground
fault interrupter device.
14. Before installing the pump, have
the electrical outlet checked by a
licensed or certified electrician to
make sure the outlet is properly
grounded.
15. Make sure the line voltage and fre-
quency of electrical current supply
agrees with the motor wiring.
