My family just got a used pool off of craigslist and when we were taking it down it had 2 grounding rods. One for the pump and the other was connected to the pool itself. I can understand why the pump needs to be grounded but why are the sides of the pool grounded. When we were taking it down the people told us that during a thunderstorm they were swimming in it. Is this logical to do since electricity cannot be carried through plastic.
