Again, I'm not trying to speak to the quality of a listed "storable pool".
There is nothing in the OP's description that tells me that it's not
storable. If it happens to be " storable", he does not need to run the feed
to the outlet in conduit. You made a blanket statement referring to 680.21,
I'm merely saying that it doesn't apply to storable pools, even if they are
"crap"

A lot of people look at this and think it is a loophole to allow them
to hook up their AG pool without following part II.
The critical point is you can only use listed "storable pool"
equipment on storable pools. This tends to be just what the name
storable implies. "Storables" are pumps with 25' cords plastic body,
double insulated and low enough power that they can share a circuit
with whatever other loads a general lighting circuit outside may
carry. A lot of these smaller storable pumps just hang over the rim
of the pool. and use a filter the size of a beer can.
The mere fact that he is running a circuit out to the pool implies
this is not a storable pool and he wants a real pump.
not this crap
