Correct answer to question 10038
- C: Luminaires, submersible pumps, and other submersible equipment
Explanation
Luminaires, submersible pumps, and other submersible equipment for fountains must be GFCI protected unless listed for operation at low voltage and supplied by a transformer or power supply that meets the requirements for pools. Water and submerged equipment create a direct shock path, so ground-fault protection is essential.
