Ground Wire on an Above Ground Pool

Where and how do I attach the ground wire to a pool that has resin post and joints? Pool is 18 round. Please help!!
Hi Brian. That is a good question. Many times the pool bottom rails are steel, you could drive a Tek screw into the rail holding your ground wire. The footplates are usually metal and a wire could easily be bolted to one of them, even if you needed to remove a few screws and pull the bottom of the upright away from the pool.
When all else fails go the wall joint and loosen one of the nuts, attach your wire, or wire connector, and re-tighten the nut. This can usually be done without removing the upright, but if you can not get behind it, remove the bottom screws to make it easier.
Those are all the secrets to ground wires on above ground pools that I know of.
