Hi, my pool is new and first timer. I bonded the pool all the way around. no shock of water or tripped breakers. If i walk across my trex deck and touch the water a slight very low voltage shock. But if you walk across the yard and touch water then nothing no shock. We put a voltage tester as we waked on normal ground around the pool and nothing. but when you walk up on the deck and touch the top resin rail the very low voltage light goes off. So i am thinking the pool is bonded, but how to get rid of the shock of the deck or is it something else going on. Thank you
static shock from the trex deck?

Welcome to TFP.
Try connecting a bonding wire from the Trex deck to the bonding grid. Same with the top resin rail.

Trex is a composite material made of wood fibers and recycled plastics (plastic bags and shrink wrap).
Has it been dry out lately?
Try spraying down the deck with water from a hose. Get the deck nice and wet. Then walk around on the deck and touch the pool water. See if you get a shock.
