must be GFCI protected. Having installed and serviced pool lights I can tell you most are 120v at the GFCI breaker.
The fact that they "must be GFI" protected is of no consolation to the dead individual who had 120V lights installed many years ago before the requirement for GFI..........and probably before you became an "electrician".

The reason for the 19V pool lights is to ensure that nobody is harmed by a system that is not protected by a GFI or one where the GFI fails to trip.

I really don't need any witty replies. Your own answers show your lack of knowledge in this arena.
