What are the electrical concerns with SWG?

[tenax]

i question the bonding process as i read time and time again in manuals it appears to be an issue if your electrical equipment is within x feet of pool. for example, i too have a set of metal stairs..aside from that and various screws, no metal in the pool..the pool is about 40 ft away from my pool shed so how the heck would a person bond the stairs..and do you need to at that distance? (ps- i note none of my electrical stuff has a bonding wire..pump, heater..when i put my swg in, i'll bond all those items)

thanks

You run the wire underground to the shed. It's usually put in the plumbing trench.
