Sounds like the pool is not properly grounded.

You should get an electrician to bring it in compliance with local electrical codes at least.

I have an EE degreee as well and of my 34 graduating classmates exactly zero had any practical real world knowledge of electricity which in my mind, makes them as dangerous as your cashiers and cleaning ladies! In fact, I'd go so far as to say the cashier and cleaning lady may be at an advantage since the EE has spent most of his dorky life watching Star Trek and playing with his wookie and not worrying about why the pool tastes funny with the lights on.

To get back to OP, call an electrician and he'll tell you the pool isn't grounded properly and then he'll spend hours tracking it down.

Is passing up an opportunity for free shock therapy really a wise choice at this venture?

I laughed at this thread too. I have an EE degree and I'll humbly say i'm worthless at this stuff.
