I have to travel to the in-laws this weekend to install a sub-panel for their new above ground pool in the state of Louisiana. Here is my assumptions please tell me if I am wrong or off-base.
Plan is to install a 50 amp sub-panel (outdoors) on a 4' high post near pool.
Water-tight flex containing 4 runs of 4# copper, 2 hot, 1g 1N. 50amp breaker in main, 50 amp main breaker in sub-panel and smaller breakers (gfci) to the loads.
Will a ground rod be needed or do I tie the ground back to the house panel?
