When you get into "storable pools" a whole lot of what we know about pools goes away.
(including the receptacle you are asking about)
It certainly calls into question all of the "fastened in place" language.

I think a storable pool only requires GFCI for everything and listed equipment, along with the separation/clearances in 680 part I.

As an aside, I have one of those 1/3hp storable pool pumps and it is a tiny little motor. I just bought it because it was cheap on Ebay. I was thinking about using it for solar heat experiments.

As gfretwell said...
If it's a storable pool Sections 1 & 3 of 680 apply....
680.30 to 680.34 (05 NEC; '02 is in car)
Basically GFI not less than 10'; no bond required. IF it has lights, read on.

Basically, it's a non-permit item for me.
