Abstract:
A pool controller system for distributing line voltage from a line voltage service to one or more line voltage loads and controlling operation of a pool service system, comprising:a housing; a controller circuit board assembly mounted within the housing, including a plurality of line voltage output terminals for connection to respective line voltage loads via line voltage wiring connections, a set of circuit board line voltage contact surfaces, a plurality of circuit conductors for providing circuit connections between the contact surfaces and respective ones of the line voltage output terminals, wherein the controller circuit board assembly routes line voltage from the circuit board line voltage contact surfaces to the output terminals; a terminal connector structure mounted within the housing, said connector structure having a set of line voltage connectors, each line voltage connector including a pressure connector for pressure connection to a corresponding one of a set of line voltage supply conductors and a connector line voltage contact surface for contacting a corresponding board line voltage contact surface; removable fastening structures for securing the board assembly in position within the housing such that each of the circuit board line voltage contact surfaces is in intimate electrical contact with a corresponding connector line voltage contact surface, and for permitting the board assembly to be removed for repair or replacement without disconnecting the line voltage supply conductors from said pressure connectors.
