VEVOR Above Ground Pool Pump, 2 HP, 110 GPM Max Flow Single Speed Swimming Pool Pump, 110V/240V 3450 RPM 59 ft Max Head Pool Pump with Filter Basket, for Above Ground Pools Hot Tubs Spas

I have been running these pumps for 9 years and have never grounded mine. If you want you can put a grounding rod in the ground and ground it to that.

I sent this back because i didn't know what to do with it either. Also i do not remember any mention of needing an electrician to hook it up in tbe description, because if it was i wouldn't have bought it and turn around a

you can install a grounding rod and attach wire, i have 2 groundfaults, one in my breaker box and one at the pump, as well, i think codes require groundfaults in most applications

I never hooked that wire up on my pump,I think it is suppose to ground the pump directly to the ground through a grounding rod ( usually a long copper rod driven into the ground.) to prevent electrocution. When pump is hard wired and being run on 210/220 volt option, or to maybe meet local codes. I stayed with a 110/115 supplied by a ground fault circuit, and have had no problems
