I have a side view drawing of the pool when constructed but it doesn't show electrical wires ,just a side view of the pool. Just use armoured cable, like the cable used to supply the house with power. I've used normal flex before, but it rots or gets eaten by something. That would drain your pool. The pool light conduit is flooded by pool water. Not the bit where the electrical connections go. The conduit goes directly into the wet niche and the cord to the lamp runs through the flooded conduit. That is why the junction box has to be elevated above the water line. There is pool water in the conduit. What a weird idea. I'd design the lamp housing with the wire coming out the back, sealed off from the water. With a pool light, there is a light housing and a "niche". The housing is a sealed enclosure with SOOW (or equivalent) cable supplying power to the light circuit. The niche is a non sealed cavity with conduit attached leading to the power supply. The waterproof cable threads through the conduit and the sealed housing mounts to the niche. The housing is equipped with enough extra cable, stored in the niche, to allow the enclosure to be removed and serviced on the dry surface surrounding the pool. Considering the caustic nature of the chemicals used in pool water, this approach is brilliant in it's simplicity and safety. I see. Hang on, someone in this group said you died on a roof. Could you post the message ID of that post?

Police Chief Mark Hulse reports that Christopher A. Young, 54, of Farmington, was admitted to the roof of Walgreens by internal access Tuesday, July 19 to clean the roof drains. There he suffered a heart related incident and died. As an independent contractor hired by the Walgreens Corp., Hulse says no one at the store knew Young's name nor noticed when he did not come down from the roof. Young's unattended vehicle was later reported to police who attempted to contact him, but the connection to the man who went up on the roof was not made until store employees checked the store security video, and then discovered his body on the roof at 2:10 p.m. July 22. Young's name was withheld by police until his family had been notified. He lived alone with no one to report him missing. Hulse says Young had only a sister living near him, but it was not unusual for them to be out of touch for periods of time. Young's body was removed to Soldiers and Sailors Memorial Hospital where the post mortem was performed by a local pathologist, Dr. Dean, who ruled the death to be by natural causes related to the heart. Local Walgreens store management referred all questions to Walgreens Corporation Media Relations Dept. personnel, who refused to comment. |

That's as far back as I have downloaded posts, he could have been here longer. I see Stormin' Norman in other groups. Only one of the two is able to answer your question. I think they both 'borrowed' the "Stormin'" moniker from this guy. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norman_Schwarzkopf_Jr. You may be right. -- .. |

On Tue, 27 Sep 2016 21:21:47 +0000, Stormin' Norman wrote: I doubt you will have any luck finding a LED replacement for a 300w halogen T3 RSC bulb. That seems like quite an odd duck for a for a pool light. If I were in your position, I would identify the Light fixture currently in your pool and see if I could find, on eBay or Amazon, a replacement fixture that would fit your existing niche and that would accept an LED bulb. I just can't imaging ****ing away that much power for a single pool illumination light bulb. Depending upon your current light niche, I am finding quite a few fixtures for $100 - $150. I am now going to bow out and leave any further detective work up to you, good luck. I do appreciate your help. I'll figure it out by Spring and find a solution by then. Could you put a rush on that? I was coming over for dip and I know you want to appreciate my lovely body. -- Tekkie |

It's a razor blade manufacturer you ignoranus. -- My younger sister was having one of her first gynecological appointments and she had some questions for the doctor. "Doctor" she asked, "I can't ask my parents, They would kill me but my boyfriend wants to have anal sex. I don't know what to tell him, I mean I don't know anything about it. Can I get pregnant?" The kindly old doctor smiled whimsically and replied "Of course, you can my dear. Where do you think lawyers come from?" |
