    Default Re: testing pool light

    120v pool lights scare the spit out of me...I would NEVER have one unless it was on a bullet-proof ground-fault circuit. I think low-voltage lights are much safer and can be just as bright.

    If a full-voltage light gave me any question I would disconnect its wiring from the pool until it's resolved. Yankees' future Hall-of-Fame closer Mariano Rivera lost two family members to electrocution in his pool at home in Panama, just a couple of years ago.

    As I said, full voltage pool lights scare the spit out of me.
