(2)Be comprised of copper, brass, suitable plastic, or other approved corrosion-resistant material
(3)Be provided with electrical continuity between every connected metal conduit and the grounding terminals by means of copper, brass, or other approved corrosion-resistant metal that is integral with the box
(2) Installation Where the luminaire (fixture) operates over 15 volts, the junction box location shall comply with (A)(2)(a) and (A)(2)(b). Where the luminaire (fixture) operates at less than 15 volts, the junction box location shall be permitted to comply with (A)(2)(c). See related ROP
(a)Vertical Spacing. The junction box shall be located not less than 100 mm (4 in.), measured from the inside of the bottom of the box, above the ground level, or pool deck, or not less than 200 mm (8 in.) above the maximum pool water level, whichever provides the greater elevation.

Should you run your underwater pool lights for at least 1 hour a day?
I think you should. The reason why is that sometimes at night the pool lights should be on to symbolize that it is unnecessary to enter, and what if you walk around your pool and trip? My old swimming pool lights were on at least an hour everyday just in case you don't use the lights for a long time it can stop working. The downside to turning on pool lights is that it wastes electricity, but you don't have to put it on for exactly 1 hour, you can turn the lights on just for a few minutes, or how long you think.
Are you supposed to breathe out underwater or hold your breath then exhale and inhale all at once when swimming laps?
When swimming laps (as opposed to racing) you should breathe out in a continuous flow underwater so that you are ready to draw your next breath as your mouth breaks the surface.
How far apart to put can lights?
Based on the height of the ceiling the lights can be placed at half the distance. For a ceiling of 14 feet, the lights should be at 7 feet.
What should you be worried about when swimming in a creek?
well you biggest concern would be a snake Or: a crocodile, an alligator, underwater obstructions, sudden drop-offs, whirpools, and strong currents.
Is it safe to wear this watch underwater or in the shower?
The Neve 07101042 women's watch is rated as water resistant to a depth of 30 meters or 100 feet, so it should be safe to wear while swimming and showering.
Can my height grow if I am 19 and my height is 5'1?
yes your height can grow but it depends on your affords. have a good diet rich in calcium,milk and yogurt. swimming will help you, also have 8 hours night sleep regularly.you should know growing doesn't happen in one month and you should do it for a long period maybe one year and then you will see the result.
How should you be attired when going swimming?
proper swimming costume- not lycra or anything swimming cap swimming goggles
What is the name for a tornado underwater?

tampons if you are swimming etc but if in the bath, nothing :)
Should school have a swimming pool?
Yes, It gives people a chance to express their inner swimming. Those who love swimming should swim and those who don't have swimming pool should be able to swim at school. Those who dislike swimming should not have to swim.<some people cant swim>
