help- this is my first post.

I just got a second hand pump as a gift and it has a different plug type

having search the internet I believe it's a locking type plug, but couldn't find any picture.

any chance I can get an adapter, or am I going to have a to have the pump plug rewired.

I'm amazed at how much I have already learned here reading all the posts. I was reading to get rid of our above ground pool because of hassle but am looking forward to it now

It is a twist lock plug, and you can get an adapter. I have one, but I ended up just rewiring the pump with a regular male plug. You should be able to get the adapter at your local pool shop I would say.

Or you can get a twist lock receptacle. Which may be required by code.

thank you for the info

the adpater is more our budget right now.

we're only able to open the pool due to the hand me down pump/ filter due to budget constraints.
