Looking for opinions here on this one.
E Contractors have been coming up with some creative ways to accomplish the intent of the NEC to bond the water in pools with the required 9 sq in. of non corrosive water contact material.
Besides a few listed methods specifically manufactured for the purpose, are;
The stainless bezel ring on a wet niche fixture that is bonded to the grid through the internal niche plate.
The stainless heat exchanger in the pool gas heater that is connected. (I've checked two types already and they are internally connected to the bond connection).
Opinions?
