Pool Water Bonding...680.26(C) 2008 NEC

[shortcircuit2]

Anyone have a link to a part that can be used to satisfy 680.26(C) of the 2008 NEC?

Has anyone used a stainless or brass nipple at the pump for the pool water bond?

How about some kind of 9"x9" plate to mount through the side of a nonconductive pool shell?

I believe a metal pipe mounted at the motor is an acceptable bonding method. If there is a light in the pool that will usually be sufficient also.

I would also say the 9" is not limited to one part requiring bonding .. the part dimensions can be added together

I have a part that will work. Came up with a stainless steel plate 3"x 4" with a stainless steel threaded stud attached to it. This fits in the skimmer of the pool below the basket. You drill a hole for the 1/4 inch stud to go through to the outside of skimmer where you can put your bonding lug.
