I was wondering if someone that has an Aqua Trol could tell me how long the cords are and how far it can be installed from the pool? I did not see the information on the Hayward site/nor their owner manuals.
If I understand the electrical codes correctly, no receptacles are allowed within 5 ft of AGP wall. If between 5 and 10 ft I need a Twist-Lock receptacle/plug and the cord and not exceed 3'. If >10' I can use a 3-prong GFCI. I know Aquatrol comes in a 3-prong and TL form.
Our intended pool spot is pretty tight due to code setbacks, trees elsewhere, a shed, etc. The pump that came with the pool has a standard 3-prong plug with a 6' cord. So if I was to site a receptacle 10' away for the Aquatrol is that too far for the cords to reach the cell/flow switch???
