Show solution

Correct answer to question 10038

  • C: Luminaires, submersible pumps, and other submersible equipment

Explanation

Luminaires, submersible pumps, and other submersible equipment for fountains must be GFCI protected unless listed for operation at low voltage and supplied by a transformer or power supply that meets the requirements for pools. Water and submerged equipment create a direct shock path, so ground-fault protection is essential.
