So I've done a lot of reading hear on TFP about bonding. Great information is found through out the forum and I've learned a lot...but I still have a question.
I understand the need for a bonding loop and bonding all the metallic items (heater, pump, filter, lights, stairs, etc) and now I'm worried! I'm replacing a pump and installing at SWG and by way of reading the installation instructions, I stumbled on the whole "bonding loop" requirements...which lead me to find out that it appears there is no bonding loop around the pool. So my question is, now what? I've got a concrete pad that circles the pool which is between 3' and 6' wide. I have two light posts and an outlet in the ground that are about 6 ' from the pool edge. It would be relatively easy for me to run #8 copper between the lights, outlet, pump, filter, heater, SWG, but I don't see any way that I could loop/connect the pool and stairs. Any suggestions?
Thanks
Tim.
