1. The junction box or Infinite WaterColors LED Light
Controller suitable for direct conduit connection to
lights must be located at least (8) inches above water
level, at least four (4) inches above ground level, and
at least (48) inches (4) feet from the edge of the pool,
or as required by local code, see Figure 1 .
2. The light fixture and all metal items within five
(5) feet of the pool must be properly electrically
bonded to a reliable point of grounding.
3. The wet niche must be properly installed so that the
top edge of the underwater light's lens is at least
(18) inches below the surface of the water in the
pool. See Figure 1 .
4. The wet niche must be properly electrically bonded
and grounded via the No. 8 AWG ground connector
located at the rear of the niche. See Figure 1 .
National Electrical Code
of the Pool Water. Where none of the bonded
pool equipment, structures, or parts are in direct

be in direct contact with an approved corrosion-
resistant conductive surface that exposes not less than
5800 mm² (9 in²) of the surface area to the pool water at
all times. The conductive surface shall be located where
it is not exposed to physical damage or dislodgement

Installing the Light Fixture
NOTE: Perform these steps only after the electrical system
requirements are met.
1. Feed cord through conduit to junction box, leaving
at least four (4) feet of cord at the light fixture to coil
into the base of the light niche, see Figure 1 . The
four (4) feet of cord allows the light to be serviced
after the pool is filled with water.
2. Cut the cord at the junction box, leaving at least six
(6) inches of cord to make connections.
