Right now, the pool has a pool pump that is already wired up. Im adding a pool heater which is 38a.
1) Does the 80% rule apply here or should i just use a 40a circuit?
2) Should the circuit be ran in pvc from the panel or can UF be used?
3) The circuit for the pool pump that is there is not ran in pvc, it's just a gfci receptacle and the pump is plugged into it. Is this safe or should it also be ran with pvc from panel?
Im a little confused about this here guys. Any help would be great, thank you.
