- Ensure power to the pool light circuit is OFF at the main breaker.
- Verify the existing niche is compatible with the 10-inch Amerilite fixture.
- Gather necessary tools: screwdriver, wire strippers, electrical tape, conduit lubricant (e.g., Vaseline).
4.2 Koraci instalacije
- Remove Old Light (if applicable): Carefully remove the existing pool light fixture from its niche. Disconnect the wiring, ensuring the power is off.

Securely splice the cut end of the old wire to the free end of the new light's 50-foot cord (the end opposite the light fixture). Wrap the splice with electrical tape, ensuring the diameter is not excessively large.
- Pull New Cord: From the junction box or switch box, gently pull the old wire out. This will draw the new light's cord through the conduit. Applying a small amount of conduit lubricant (like Vaseline) to the new cable can facilitate easier pulling.
- Povežite ožičenje: At the junction box, connect the new light's wiring according to local electrical codes and the light's instructions. Typically, this involves connecting the black wire to the hot lead, the white wire to the neutral lead, and the green wire to the ground terminal.
- Secure Light in Niche: Carefully coil the excess cord behind the light fixture in the niche. Position the light fixture into the niche and secure it using the provided pilot screw on the face ring. Ensure the light is properly seated and sealed.
- Submerge and Test: Once the light is securely installed and the pool is filled to the appropriate level, turn on the power at the circuit breaker. Verify the light operates correctly.
