Hardwiring a Circupool CORE

[itmeandrew]

Hello,
I'm thinking about buying a Circupool CORE but have some questions about the hardwiring. I hope someone on this forum has experience in hardwiring a circupool core that can help me.

1. Does the unit come with another set of wires for hard wiring or are you supposed to cut off the Edison plug and hard wire that?
2. I have a VSP so it is constantly getting power straight from the breaker. In order to tie the pump and SWG, is the best move to hard wire the SWG to an AUX relay on my Hayward OnCommand and use the programmable AUX interlock features?

I appreciate any help, thanks!

You can replace the power wire to wire it directly into your Omni panel.

I would use a Liquidtight whip between the Core and the panel.

Thanks for the reply. I saw that page too but was more curious about the details of modifying the wire for hardwiring and I can't find any videos on it. I saw a post on here mentioning the cut the Edison plug for hard wiring. Is converting it to liquid tight whip easy?

Can you use a screwdriver and pliers?
