When I was working around my filter, my foot accidentally hit the bonding wire that connects the pool to the pump, and it the wire popped out of the nut.
No big deal, place it back in the nut and tighten.
One weird thing did happen though - As soon as the bonding wire came off, the pump stopped. I checked, and the GFCI on the circuit breaker tripped when the bonding wire was knocked off.
Question: Does this mean that there was electricity going to the pool and the differential of when the bonding wire got knocked off ended up tripping the GFCI?
