| The pump is a 0-1086-020 pool power pak 2= 115 vac-60 hz 3450 rpm 1 hp 10.0 amp motor. It is double insulated. It will be pluged into a Goldline controls aqua trol clorine generator control box that is 110-130vac 60hz 15 amp unit. It is 145 feet from the panel to a location 10 feet from the pool, The control box has a 3 ft Cord with non locking end ,(twist type). The pump is used and unfortunately we discovered tonight it was wired with a 18 gauge 25 foot extention cord. The terminal plate is missing as well so I can't answer the second part of your question knowing the proper cord will need to be installed along with the terminal cover. | ||||
