Wet-Nitch Luminaires 110 Volts

[Bowhunter]

Is 680.23 (B) (2) saying that with a wet-nitch 110 volt pool fixture there has to be a junction box or if one is used it has to conform to 680.24?
Is it possible to run to a junction box ten feet away as long as it is protected? Can a conduit run from the forming shell all the way to the panel that has the GFCI breaker in it, as long as it is grounded and bonded properly?

I think that (B)(2) allows that.
It also allows the circuit to be in conduit conforming to the requirements as far as a junction box and be extended from there back to the panel using other approved pool wiring methods, not just those specific for wet-niche.

680.24 (B) would seem to prohibit this since the panel board is not listed for the purpose, and made of brass or other corrosion resistant material.

A "listed swimming pool junction box" as spelled out in 680.24(A)(1) or a "listed enclosure" such as spelled out in (B) is required here

I 100% agree. The conduit from the forming shell must terminate in a Box listed for the purpose. The box will have a clamp to secure the cable from the light and terminals to connect the EGC of the light and the #8 bonding wire that is required if PVC conduit is used.
