can i feed a swimming pump and underwater lighting 120 volt from a sub- panel instead of the main service. it has been a long time since i wired a pool and the code keep changing. the sub panel is not a pool panel.
 
Yes you can, and if you can't easily meet the rules for pool feeders (680.25) and this is an existing feeder, you'll need to point that out to the inspector (and perhaps have proof of when that feeder was installed -- hopefully it has an inspection sticker or a permit on file). If the feeder is totally wrong and was never code compliant (e.g. a subpanel in the same building using the neutral as a grounding conductor), you may have an issue to fix.
