IMPORTANT ELECTRICAL SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
SAFETY COMES FIRST WHEN INSTALLING & USING THIS ELECTRICAL EQUIPMENT, BASIC
SAFETY PRECAUTIONS MUST ALWAYS BE FOLLOWED!
1. READ AND FOLLOW ALL INSTRUCTIONS .
2. Electrical installation must be completed by a qualified electrician in accordance with all National,
Regional and Local Codes and Regulations in effect at the time of installation.
3. Connect only to a dedicated circuit protected by a class “A” two-pole ground fault circuit in-
terrupter (GFCI)
.
4. Use copper conductors only.
5. The hot tub equipment and all electrical plugs, outlets and lights within 1.5m (5 ft) of the unit must be
GFCI protected. Consult your electrician or local electrical authority for further details.
6. A green colored terminal or a terminal marked “G”, “GR”, “Ground”, or “Grounding” is located inside
the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, this terminal must be
connected to the grounding means provided in the electric supply service panel with a continuous
copper wire equivalent in size to the circuit conductors supplying the equipment.
7. At least two lugs marked “BONDING LUGS” are provided on the external surface or on the inside of
the supply terminal box or compartment. To reduce the risk of electric shock, connect the local com-
mon bonding grid in the area of the hot tub to these terminals with an insulated or bare copper con-
ductor not smaller than No. 6 AWG (Canada/Europe) / No. 8 AWG (USA).
8. All field installed metal components such as rails, ladders, drains or other similar hardware within 3m
(10 ft) of the hot tub shall be bonded to the equipment grounding bus with copper conductors not
smaller than No. 6 AWG.
9. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS .


The minimum wire size for systems that require a 40A GFCI is #8/3 conductor with ground. (also
referred to as #8 gauge / 4 conductor).

The minimum wire size for systems that require a 50A or 60A GFCI is #6/3 conductor with ground
(also referred to a #6 gauge / 4 conductor).
IMPORTANT NOTE:

This guide is for standard installations where the wire run is 15m (50ft) or less. For longer runs, con-
sult a qualified electrician.
