wiring

Can someone please help me understand what each of these do? We need a new swg and maybe pump and want to do the install ourselves if possible. We also replaced the pool lights a year or two ago (my dad did this) and now the light doesn't work so it must be wired incorrectly. Filter Pump button...

Hi All, I have a Suraielec 40AMP 24OV wifi timer for a 1.5HP VSP and 240V Salt Water Chlorinator (both are Circupool). My question relates to wiring. Can I wire both to the single 240V of the timer? I would prefer this so both have no power draw when they are off. I have a very basic diagram...

Hello, my original thread from the spring discussed some options for wiring my pump and SWG to a single relay so the SWG would only run while there is flow. Easy enough.... However, i've realized that i probably want to run on two schedules (the IntelliConnect only allows for a single schedule...

Hi All, I had my old pool timer die on me last year and was going to wire in the new one this year so I don't need to manually control the pump anymore. The old timer was a digital Paragon Electric EC4004PC/208-240. I took a look at my pump and breaker and the pump is set at 115v and the...

I am considering wiring my CircuPool RJ 60 to my Jandy VS pump to come on when the pump comes on. Per the Jandy manual, it looks like I could use one of the two auxiliary relays. Does this wiring schematic seem doable? The most difficult thing would be adding the GFCI breaker to my pool pad...

I was getting gas line installed today and the contractor cut the wiring to my pool. The cut happened close to my house, far away from the breaker by the pump (see photo). An electrician spliced the wire together and did his best to get it back into the conduit. The question is, is it OK to...

Our pool was installed around 2007 and still has the original Hayward H400 heater. We had the original Jandy board recently replaced with the Zodiac iAqualink. The iAqualink system is great, and the heater does a good job at heating water, but the issue is the communication and/or relay between...
