I installed a pool but did not get the bonding inspection before the cc was poured, although i have plenty of pictures showing the #8 copper wire going around and connecting to all 4 corners of the pool ., and being grounded at the base of the pool… all ladders ,light and handrails are connected connected to the #8 gauge continuous run copper wire .. that being said we used tech screws to and connecting the copper grounding nuts .. so the township wants me to remove the concrete and use stainless steel grounding nuts , and they say my wire is more than 4” deep 😠. Btw i use FIBERGLASS REBAR TO SUPPORT MY CC DECKING
