Before installing the EasyTouch load center read the following guidelines:
•
AC power for the EasyTouch load center must be provided from the main circuit breaker
panel located at the house.
•
All electrical equipment, except for UL Listed spa-side remote switches, must be installed at
least five (5) feet from pool and/or spa, and comply with all national, state, and local codes
(UL Listed spa-side remote switches may be installed at near waterline).
•
Install the EasyTouch load center no less than five (5) feet from pool or spa near to the
pumps, heater, valves, and sensors. Mount the enclosure outside or inside a pool equipment
house or other enclosure.
•
Before choosing the final location for the EasyTouch load center, consider the length of the
wires and valve wires that have to be connected to the enclosure. Make sure to consider
cable lengths for the sensors to the EasyTouch load center location. The Air Temperature
Sensor cable is 3 feet long and the Water Temperature Sensor is 25 feet long.
•
Mount the EasyTouch load center on a flat vertical surface or wall so that the conduit
knockouts are located at the bottom of the enclosure. Upper and lower brackets are
provided to mount the enclosure to a vertical surface.

DO NOT mount the EasyTouch load center enclosure horizontally. Water can enter the
conduit knockouts and cause damage to the system and an electrical shock hazard.
•
Consider the EasyTouch load center location when routing the conduit carrying the AC
power to the EasyTouch load center, and the conduit that will be run to the high voltage
equipment.
•
Install the EasyTouch load center so that drainage is provided for all electrical components.
•
Motors should have built-in thermal protection.
•
Allow for unobstructed access to the front of the EasyTouch load center for the owner or
service personnel.
