Are those chords attached to a GFI outlet? Imagine what could happen if the pool ruptures and the yard floods. Otherwise the distance between the pool and fire pit are OK

That is a safe distance. You don't want anything (like the pool, house, garage) within 3 meters.

I just bought a fire pit and a burning permit, but I have an above ground pool. The fire pit will be approximately 8 meters from the pool, and the cords/filters/other electronics are on the opposite side of the pool. No where near the actual fire.
