No solar panels, no extra power panels - barn, garage, etc... The service/panel ground is 1 ft away from the service entrance and about 5 ft away from the motor/swg. Those are about 20ft away from the pool. I get the same measurement of 1.5v if I put a probe in the water and 1 on the test...

I have read hundreds of posts from here and other sites from the past several years. Some say you can't feel less than 2 volts and some poco's - even I believe some of the national institutes say less than 2 or 4v stray volts is acceptable but with salt and the swimmer/deck being wet but not...

John. Agreed and makes total sense about the slight difference between the deck/dirt/bond. Additionally, I had the same thought about the original service ground. In the box, the neutrals and grounds are good to go as that was the first thing we did. Also, I drove a new 8' ground approx 10 ft...

John, The ground lead was attached to the ground rod I drove for testing, which is 2ft deep, 8ft away from the pool. The positive lead was touched to the bond wire coming from the pool. That is where the 1.5 volts is. My guess is the voltage is actually higher, perhaps on a different...

"An additional bonding grid would probably help" How would you go about adding that? Also, Something I just noticed... from an earlier post by NavyWife. "On that note I took a chisel and hammered away at the concrete where the mounts were and there is rebar sticking up in each of the 4...

Yep, that's the $145.00 one....

JamesW, not sure if they disconnected the neutral. They are willing to work with me, so I will have them do that at my house and the neighbors. With further testing this weekend: Removed the ladder. Disconnected the light wires (black and white) from the transformer. Created crude water bond...

I appreciate everyone's response! We live in Northwest Ohio. I will try bonding the water this weekend and see what happens then let you know. (If I would go with a commercial product, does it matter where I bond the water? I know they have a plate that goes in the skimmer or as Jason...

Between the pool water and a ground rod stuck about a foot in the ground just past the deck. I can also measure it from the pool to the deck if I throw some water on the deck. For the pond, it is from the pond to a rod about a foot in the ground, about 3 ft back from the water. If I go from...

We bought a house that had an inground fiberglass pool installed last year. We are under the 2005 rules and in a rural area which only required a construction permit and no inspection. The pool has a ladder, led light and rail. The equipment pad is 20 ft from the pool and there is a pump...
