Commercial Swimming Pool Inspections

On December 11, 1998, Governor Christie Todd Whitman signed into law P.L. 1998,C,137 which requires the periodic inspection of swimming pools, spas, and hot tubs on any property other than one or two family residential property.  This law also provides that no facility may be opened until a valid 'bonding and grounding' certificate and electrical certificate of compliance are issued.  These provisions are intended to ensure the life safety of workers at and users of such facility.  The effective date is February 9, 1999.

The required bonding and grounding certificate must verify the continuity and integrity of the bonding and grounding system of the pool.  The electrical certificate of compliance must verify that all wiring located in or about the pool pump and associated electrical equipment complies with the electrical subcode.

The bonding and grounding certificate is required to be issued by a recognized electrical testing agency and is valid for five years from the date of  issuance.  The electrical certification of compliance is required to be issued annually by the enforcing agency upon completion of a satisfactory inspection of the facility and payment of a fee established by the enforcing agency's administrative costs.
