I went to work on a water fountain today. There was 2 underwater lights and a water pump in the water. Once the founting was drained i tested the voltage of the 2 cables. The lights were running off 12v and the water pump was running off 230v. I was thinking to myself 'this can't be right', so i tested it again, still 230v. Are you allowed 230v in a fountain pool?
The water pump is nackered and needs to be renewed, but aren't these pumps meant to be 12v?
