3.2.7 Wire Gauge and Length
CAUTION
Jandy®
Nicheless Underwater LED Lights are low voltage fixtures.
Improper wire gauge and wire length can effect the performance of
these products. Follow the guidelines below to determine the proper
operation and optimum performance of the lights.
The output voltage of the Infinite WaterColors LED
Light Controller is 14 VAC to accommodate the
voltage drop across cords up to 200 ft. Installations
should not exceed 200 ft.
NOTE Each color mode has a slightly different power
draw
3.2.8 Fourteen (14) Volt Installation
The Infinite WaterColors LED Light Controller IS
required to power Infinite WaterColors Lights.
NOTE For optimum performance do not exceed the load
factor specified by the instructions included with
the transformer.
3.2.9 RS-485 Connection
See low voltage wiring, Section 3.3.
To ensure maximum safety, use only the Jandy
Infinite WaterColors LED Light Controller listed for
swimming pool and spa use.
CAUTION
To prevent risk of fire which could result in property damage, and to
ensure optimum performance, do not exceed the load factor specified
in the instructions provided by the transformer manufacturer.

3.2.10 Variable Speed Pump Wiring (High Voltage)
With the AquaLink it is possible to control up to sixteen
(16) variable speed pumps. This section describes how to
supply AC power to the pumps. For instructions on how to
connect the low voltage communications wiring (RS485)
see Section 3.3.3.
3.2.11 Jandy Variable Speed Pump
For pump high voltage wiring specifications and
instructions, please refer to the installation/operation
manual of the corresponding pump.
WARNING
Potentially high voltages in the AquaLink Power Center can create
dangerous electrical hazards, possibly causing death, serious injury or
property damage. Turn off power at the main circuit of the AquaLink
Power Center to disconnect the Power Center from the system. To
properly and safely wire the system, be sure to carefully follow the
applicable requirements of the National Electrical Code®
(NEC®), NFPA
70 or the Canadian Electrical Code (CEC®), CSA C22.1. All applicable
local installation codes must also be adhered to.
To connect a Jandy variable speed pump to a
dedicated circuit breaker.
1. Make sure all electrical breakers and switches
are turned off before wiring the motor.
2. Make sure the wiring voltage is appropriate for
the pump model being used. Refer to the pump
installation manual for specifications.
3. Use #12 AWG for wire runs up to 100 feet and
#10 AWG for lengths longer than 100 feet. When
in doubt use a heavier gauge (larger diameter)
wire. Heavier gauge will allow the motor to run
cooler and more efficient.
4. Make sure all electrical connections are clean
and tight.
5. Strip the wires to the appropriate length so they
do not overlap or touch when connected.
6. Permanently ground the motor using the green
ground wire, as shown in Figure 10. Use the
correct wire size and type specified by National
Electrical Code (NEC) and the Canadian
Electrical Code (CEC). Make sure the ground
wire is connected to an electrical service ground.
7. Bond the motor to the pool structure in
accordance with the National Electrical Code
(NEC) and the Canadian Electrical Code
(CEC). Use a solid No. 8 AWG or larger copper
conductor (US). Run a wire from the external
