240 Volt Electrical Installation
All 240V spas are required to have a dedicated 50-amp GFCI breaker and should only be wired by a licensed
electrician. GFCI breakers vary in appearance and wire locations. Before wiring load and feed wires to breaker
verify they are being connected to the proper poles. Figure 2 and Figure 3 have been provided as guides.

Always follow applicable local, state, and federal codes and guidelines.

Your new 240V Cal Spa requires a dedicated, 50-amp GFCI Service with four #6 AWG copper wires. This
will include a black and a red wire for your incoming power, a white wire used for your neutral, and a green
wire for your ground.
You can use #6 AWG wire for a distance of up to 85 ft. Wire run over 85 ft must increase to #4 gauge. This is
the only acceptable electrical wiring procedure. Spas wired in any other way will void your warranty and
may result in serious injury.
Installing a GFCI breaker in the main electrical panel is not recommended. The further away a GFCI is
installed from the spa, the higher the risk of false tripping of the GFCI breaker.
Test the GFCI breaker prior to first use and periodically when the spa is powered. To test the GFCI breaker
follow these instructions. (Spa should be operating.)
1. Press the TEST button on the GFCI. The GFCI will trip and the spa will shut off.
2. Reset the GFCI breaker by switching the breaker to the full off position, wait a moment then turn the
breaker back on. The spa should have power again.
Your spa is now safe to use.
