I tested the pool this morning with a different volt meter and a analog tester and there is no voltage.Must have been a faulty meter.I had the pool completely retired after I bought the house by a journeyman Electriction and never an issue since.I just check it sometimes I guess for safety...

It’s dark I’ll do it in the morning.I have one of those shock alerts and it show no ac voltage.I’m going to check it tomorrow with a analog meter.

No

I periodically check my pool for stray voltage just as a precaution.I accidentally had my meter on D.C. And noticed 25v DC with one probe in the water on the other on the painted deck.No AC voltage.Maybe it's always been there. Thanks Tom

Ok,thanks,been doing it this way 8 years so I need to change to what you suggest.Thanks so much for your help, Tom

Yes, several days before the fuse blew,Strange I been adding salt that way for 8 years.Guess I better change how I do that.

Yes,several days before the fuse blew. Tom

It has been running fine now for 24 hours.Still there is a reason that 20 amp fuse blew.

Ok,thanks,I was out of town for 12 days and prior to that I did add some salt.I did add some salt prior to that time because we have had a lot of rain.I will keep an eye on it.Again thanks so much for your help. Tom

Thank you,I did as you said and all is up and running as it should.There has to be a reason that fuse blew.I am quite mechanically inclined.I replaced the thermistor a few years ago and it is solid. Tom

I just replaced the little 20 amp fuse and my salt reading says 3.20 What do I do now? Tom

Replace the fuse,if it don't blow check my reading that may tell what the problem is and also I have printed What tests to run with my multimeter. Tom

Ok,thanks,but that fuse blew for a reason

I found so far the little 20 amp fuse seams to be blown,not getting a value reading.

My Hayward swg glx has power but nothing comes on,can someone tell me how to troubleshoot it. thanks,Tom

I checked today and the motor is extremely hot and my gfi is warm.I think the hot motor is causing the gfi to get warm.

Well,the pump is 13 years old.I'll keep an eye on it.

I have a inground pool that came with the house I bought 3 years ago.It has a 110 volt pump hard wired to a weather proof timer and to circuit panel.It is on a 30 amp gfi breaker.I think during a storm it is tripping.I replaced that gfi when I bought the house.Do I really need a gfi if the pump...

I bought the house and upon inspection there was about 8 volts A/C current in one corner of the pool and wet deck.A bonding wire was broken and repaired.I periodically check the pool because of that and I accidentally had my meter on D.C. Volts.I'm thinking of buying that yellow thing that you...

Not sure if I have this in the correct section.I was having bonding issues last year so periodically I test the water for any voltage,all has been well.Today I tested it and by mistake I had my meter on D.C. And recorded .25 volts.Whats up with that?Salt system pool,using digital meter.

Thanks for the response,I did not mention it is a vinyl liner inground 18X36 pool.Where are the directions for winterizing? Thanks, Tom

I live in central Alabama where it can get 18 degrees or 80 degrees during the winter.I will be away from home Jan thru March.I have a inground salt system pool and no one to look after it.What do I do? Thanks in advance,Tom

Re: Poor vacuum sucsion I have no valves in the pump house just a small metal valve in the skimmer.I connect my vacuum to my skimmer.If I'm missing something let me know. Tom

I have a 24000 gallon vinyl inground pool,1.5 hp motor that's 12 years old.Motor seems to pump lots of water,but not much sucsion on hand vacuum.The only valves I have is a little on in skimmer but turning it does not seem to change things.Liner replaced last year,sand filter cleaned a filled...

I'm just looking to learn what others did to fix a bonding issue. Tom

Let me say again I bought this home a year ago,the pool is ten years old,no one has ever been injured.It is a tingle not a shock although I am aware it is electricity.several electricians have troubleshooted this issue over the years they must not know what bonding is.I talked to an electrician...

That would require a lot of cutting of concrete.Its a 18x36 pool with a ladder,diving board,wide fiberglass steps coming out at shallow end,with a hand rail.Concrete decking is quite large. Tom

Dave S,I'm from Sebring,fl now living in Alabama Tom

I am well aware what your saying,but I'm looking at how to fix it without tearing up the concrete deck.If that's the case may as well demolish the complete pool.I am curious to know why the .03 reading when pump is off but .08 reading when pump is on. Thanks,Tom
