Hello everyone,
I have a small water leak in my return line where the bonding wire is penetrating the pvc return line (see pics below). Bonding wire is required per code but is there a better way to seal this penetration? It looks like installer drilled a hole and inserted wire with some pool putty and a hose clamp. When pump is off you can slightly hear air being sucked into the penetration, I've tried adding some pvc primer and pvc blue glue when the pump is off to get sucked in and seal the bonding wire. This works for a few days but then it begins to leak again. Thanks in advance for any advice.
