was called in to wire a salt generator control panel for a pool company...1 problem though....there is no pool bond wire in the pump room where the salt generator is going...which means the pump isnt bonded and theres no telling what else....the pool company was just going to run a bond wire to tie the salt generator to the pump and stop it there......what are some other options without destroying the pool deck to try and find the bond.....?

I will say that I got envolved in one of these and ended up scanning the concrete with my Milwaukee sub scanner. It will find metal in concrete up to 6". I located 3 place with metal in 3 seperate slabs. I dug into the concrete, exposing rebar at one location, and wire mesh in the other 2. I landed a #8 solid on all 3 locations, and patched over them. The scanner impressed me because this was an indoor pool with radiant floor heating. My scanner found the tubing in the floor, along with the metal in the floor, (and it could tell the difference) and it was dead on where the metal was,and I didn't hit any floor heating tubes doing it.
