Important Notice:
When installed in the United States, the electrical wiring of this spa must meet the requirements of
the National Electric Code (NEC) and any applicable state or local codes. The electrical circuit must
be installed by an electrical contractor and approved by a local building/electrical inspector.
1. All Dedicated 240vac spas must be permanently connected (hard wired) to the power supply. No
plug-in connections or extension cords are to be used in conjunction with operation of this spa. See
specific power supply requirements by model. Supplying power to the spa which is not in accordance
with these instructions will void both the independent testing agency's listing and the manufacturer's
warranty.
2. The power supplied to the spa must be a dedicated circuit.
3. To determine the current, voltage and wire size required for the spa configuration to be connect-
ed, refer to Power Supply Requirements in the Owner's Manual.
Wire size must be appropriate per NEC and/local codes, and do not use rating size less than
shown on page 5 chart.
Wire size is determined by length of run from breaker box to spa and maximum current draw.
We recommend copper wire with THHN insulation
All wiring must be copper to ensure adequate connections. Do not use aluminum wire.
When using wire larger than #6 (10mm2), add a junction box near the spa and reduce to short
lengths of #6 (10mm2) wire between the junction box and the spa.
The Electrical supply for the spa must include a suitable rated switch or circuit breaker. The
disconnecting means must be readily accessible to the spa's occupant but installed at least 5
feet (1.5m) from the spa water. Check with local municipalities for additional code require
ments.
The electrical circuit for the spa must include a suitable ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)
as required by NEC Article 680-42.
4. To gain access to the spa's power terminal strip, remove the wooden/plastic cabinet panel on the
side of the spa under the control panel. After removing the cabinet panel, remove the metal control
box cover screws and metal control box cover. See Fig. 3, 4.
5. An inlet is provided to allow the power supply to enter the equipment area from the left of the hot
tub near the base. Select the inlet, then feed the power cable through to the control box. If neces-
sary you can drill a cable hole through either the bottom, back or right side of the spa cabinet to
meet cable connection to control box. See Fig. 3.
6. Install power cable through the large opening provided on the left side of the metal control box.
7. Connect wires, color to color, on the terminal block and tighten securely. See Spa controller box
drawing for details. See Fig. 4, 5.
8. Secure the metal control box door by installing its screws, then re-install the cabinet panel under
the control panel. Electrical installation is now complete. See Fig. 3, 4.
Important safety notice for all models!
Proper grounding is extremely important. A pressure securing wire connector (bonding lug) is provid-
ed on the outside of the spa controller to permit connection of a bonding wire between the spa and
any metal within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa. Bonding wire must be at least #8 AWG (8.4mm2) solid
copper wire. For Canada use bonding wire # 6AWG.
