Non-conducting leading edge bar

A method comprising:

• providing a pool cover assembly coupled to a pool, wherein the pool cover assembly comprises:
• a cover;
• a non-conductive leading edge bar coupled to the cover, wherein a cross-sectional shape of the non-conductive leading edge bar is defined by:
• a first wall that is substantially planar;
• a second wall that is substantially planar and substantially perpendicular to the first wall;
• and
• a third wall extending between the first wall and the second wall, and that is curved;
• and
• a motor operatively coupled to the non-conductive leading edge bar;
• and
• actuating the motor to move the leading edge bar over the pool.

A non-conductive leading edge bar comprising:

• a first wall that is substantially planar;
• a second wall that is substantially planar and substantially perpendicular to the first wall;
• and
• a third wall extending between the first wall and the second wall, and that is curved, wherein:
• the first wall, the second wall, and the third wall define a cross-sectional shape of the non-conductive leading edge bar to have a curvilinear triangular shape;
• and
• a non-conductive material of the non-conductive leading edge bar, the curvilinear shape, the orientation, and dimensions of the leading edge bar provides the non-conductive leading edge bar with sufficient rigidity to satisfy performance tests of the ASTM F1346-23.
