120V TO 240V WIRING CONVERSION  

INSTRUCTIONS FOR CONVERTING SPA PACK FROM 120V TO 240V 

 

These instructions pertain only to those spas furnished with a factory installed 

Balboa VS300 spa pack (see figure 1). It is possible to convert these systems to 

240 volt operation in order to meet your installation requirements. The following 

instructions must be carefully followed. 

 

1.  The conversion must be made by a qualified, licensed electrician in accor-

dance with national and local electrical codes. 

 

2.  Unplug or disconnect power to the spa. 

 

3.  Remove the front cover of the spa pack by unscrewing two screws located 

on the top-front of the unit.  

 

4.  Remove the wiring or power cord from the power input terminals (figure 2). 

 

5.  Locate the 14 AWG jumper wire between White AC terminals and Red AC 

terminals and remove / discard (figure 2). 

 

6.  Locate Switchbank A near the bottom center of the circuit board and adjust 

DIP switch #10 to the OFF position (High Amperage mode), see figure 4. 

 

7.  Connect 240VAC input wiring to terminal block. Refer to figure 3 for proper 

conductor connections. 

 

8.  Attach  the  front  cover  by  carefully  screwing  the  two  screws  in  place.  Be 

sure not to over tighten!

If system is wired to run on 120VAC using these instructions, it is important to note that no 240VAC electrical component found 

inside  the  spa  will  work.  Components  such  as  pumps  or  ozonators  must  be  rated  to  operate  on  the  same  voltage  as  the 

incoming power to the spa.
