Hi, I decided once and for all to replace my pool light in my in ground pool. I've watched video after video on how to do this. However, safety means everything. In an effort to reduce any chance of electrocution, I have decided to turn off my pool light, turn off my pool motor, turn off my pool heater. All at the junction box and the light switch for the pool light itself. Did I miss anything? Am I safe to remove the pool light? Thanks for your input.

You are not specific about how you are turning the power off in your pool light. It would be best if you flipped the circuit breaker to turn the light off.
I then verify power is off by running a non-contact voltage tester near the wires and light before touching any wires.
