    It sounds like someone is mandating that your pool be "bonded", which is related to, but distinct from "grounding".

    This thread: http://www.poolforum.com/pf2/showthr...al-Safety-Tips
    covers the issues extensively.

    However, a key question in your case is this: HOW is the county mandating this, WHO is enforcing it, and WHAT -- precisely -- are they saying you must do?

    We can tell you how you can bond a pool, even an AG one. But if we do, without examining your precise requirements, you could end up having to tear all that out, and replace it with a conforming bonding layout.

    Put a call into the electrical inspector, they are usually available in the am before inspections and "usually" dont mind guiding you in the right direction. I only needed the pool to be bonded, a 8ga bare copper wire from pool structure (bolted to wall seam) to lug on pump motor.
