I currently have an intellibrite led light, intelliflo pump, and Hayward/gold line salt cell. The Hayward will be going away.
The intelliflo and Hayward salt center are both currently powered by the same circuit, 30A 240VAC. The salt center is on the load side of a mechanical timer, and the pump is on the supply side.
The intellibrite is connected to a 120VAC 15A GFCI, which is connected to a 15A 120VAC circuit breaker.
My question, is, what is the best way to wire the easytouch, new intellichlor power center, intelliflo, and intellibrite, with just these two circuits?
-Keep intelliflo on separate circuit
-tap 120VAC circuit for intellibrite (GFCI), intellichlor (filter relay), and easytouch.
Or should I put the easytouch and intellichlor on the 240VAC line?
BTW, will eventually add a valve actuator for waterfall.
Also, something I didn’t think about yet, is I plan to get rid of suction cleaner and get a Dolphin sigma, so hope I can run it off of one of the two circuits too.
I guess I will have to put the easytouch, intellichlor, and intelliflo on the 240VAC circuit, and the intellibrite and sigma on the 120VAC. That way, if the GFCI trips, I only lose the robot, not easytouch, chlorine generation, etc. does that sound right?
Why does pentair recommend a sub panel? I just want to use wire nuts in the easytouch panel.
Thanks,
Jason
