The following information is provided for hooking up electrical supply to
your new spa. A qualified, licensed, electrician must perform this work.
Failure to follow these instructions will terminate all warranty coverage
and can cause serious injury or death.
Codes and Compliance
Your export 50 Hz Artesian spa is preset out of factory to run 230 V 3wires
30 amp max input. This product must always be connected to residual cur
-
rent device (RCD) having a trip current of not more than 30 mA.
Electrical Wiring
WARNING: Your spa must be wired by a certified electrician and
according to these instructions. Failure to do so will terminate all
warranties and all listings from the independent listing facility.
1) The Island Elite Spa requires a 240 VAC dedicated system. The spa
must be hard wired to the power supply, with no plug-in connections,
extension cords, or sharing of service.
2) The spa requires that you run 6 (10 mm²) or 8 (8.4 mm²) AWG copper
wire, depending on the GFCI size. Do Not Use Aluminum Wire.
3) The power supply must have a suitable Ground Fault Circuit Inter-
rupter (GFCI), according to Section 422-20 of the National Electrical
Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-7987 or other national installation requirement
with a residual current device (RCD) having a trip current of not more
than 30 mA. This could be used as the shut-off switch, which must be
installed in plain view of the spa. This electrical service must be readily
accessible to the spa occupants, but must not be within 5 feet of the spa.
4) Use only non-metallic conduit and fittings when installing power to
the spa.
5) After your spa has been positioned, route lines through the knockout
on the left or right front corner of the spa.
