Jandy Pool Panel

I suppose if the load is okay then I don't see why everything must be pool related. Unless there is something in the mfg instructions I think it is ok.

I'm going with Dennis on this, I *suspect* they are not mfg rated for anything other than pool eqt (but havent researched it).

It is not clear whether the breakers that fit in the panel are standard branch and feeder breakers, but they might well be.
The instructions say specifically that the panel is not suitable for use as service equipment.
The instructions also say that is must be more than 5 feet from the pool, which is hard to do if you do not have a pool.

Nothing I saw implied that it could only serve pool equipment though.

The manual says to refer to the cover sticker for approved breaker types. They describe it as a load center, so I don't know why there what be any particular restriction on what you could feed with it.

We just installed one and they took standard breakers

I went on a service call and found a electric cook top wired off a Jandy Pool panel. Is this legal to do?

We have a Pentair pool panel/load center with some auxiliary circuits on it and it passed code with no issues. The Pentair unit takes Cutler Hammer breakers and has a separate low voltage compartment for the pool controller which runs off of a 24VAC transformer. There are a bunch of relays to control pumps, cleaners and pool valves. So no issues as long as you don't exceed the rated capacity of the panel and protected convenience outlets with GFCI breakers or plugs.
 
From what I remember the circuit breaker portion of the panel is rated for 125 amps so as ling as none of the Jandy relays are controlling the cook-top (in any way) you're ok. I don't think the Jandy control relays are rated for high amperage like that which would be needed for a cook-top.

You don't have to wire everything thru the controls
