Pool Equipment Wiring
Quick answer
Pool pumps, heaters, lights, and automation wired to code, including the equipotential bonding grid that makes pools safe. Typical projects $1,000–$3,500 with permit and inspection.Typical installed cost: $1,000–$3,500
Pool electrical has its own chapter of the code (NEC 680) because the stakes are highest: bonding grids that keep every metal part at the same potential, GFCI on everything, low-voltage lighting done right, and equipment pads wired for pumps, heaters, salt cells, and automation.
About Pool Equipment Wiring
Article 680, the pool chapter of the electrical code, exists because water, wet skin, and buried metal create the perfect shock geometry. Its core idea is the bonding grid: every conductive thing near the water (rebar in the shell, ladders, rails, pump motors, even the water via a bonding fitting) tied together so a voltage difference physically cannot exist between them.
We wire complete equipment pads, variable-speed pumps, heaters and heat pumps, salt chlorinators, automation panels, plus lighting done the modern low-voltage way, and the timers and controls that make it all run without daily attention.

Bonding connects every conductive element around the pool, rebar, ladder, pump, rails, so no voltage difference can exist between them. It's what prevents shock at the water's edge, and it's the item DIY and cut-rate installs most often miss.
Yes, variable-speed pumps cut pool energy use 50–80% and often carry utility rebates. We wire them with the controls and bonding done correctly.
They're the classic hazard in older pools. We inspect, GFCI-protect, and where warranted convert to low-voltage LED, brighter, safer, and cheaper to run.
Stop swimming and call immediately: a tingle is a bonding failure or a fault energizing metal near the water. It's exactly the scenario bonding exists to prevent, and it's diagnosable and fixable, urgently.
