8. Make Electrical Connections
NOTE:
The product model number is printed on a label on the pump side of the whirlpool bath. This
label also identifies the electrical rating of the product. All whirlpools come equipped with a wiring
junction box and are designed to operate between 208 VAC and 240 VAC at either 50 Hz or 60 Hz.
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock.
Make sure the power has been disconnected before
performing the following procedures. Refer to the “Important Information” section.
WARNING: Risk of electrical shock.
Connect the pump to a properly grounded Ground-Fault
Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI)*. This will provide additional protection against line-to-ground shock
hazard. A 208-240 V, 20 A, 50/60 Hz dedicated circuit is required.
IMPORTANT!
The
load neutral
is not used. There should be no connection to the
load neutral
terminal
on the Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) breaker. The green wire with the yellow stripe is the
equipment ground
and needs to be connected to the neutral bus in the main circuit breaker box.
*Outside North America, this device may be known as a Residual Current Device (RCD).
The whirlpool bath control and system have been pre-wired at the factory. A qualified electrician
should make a routine service connection to the junction box.
Connect service to the junction box. The junction box contains blue, brown, and green with a yellow
stripe colored wires.
Follow local electrical codes. Bond in accordance with national and local codes.
A wiring harness has been pre-wired at the factory, allowing communication between the keypad,
all features, and the control. No additional wiring is required, but ensure that all wires are securely
fastened.
Bond in accordance with nation and local codes.
Open bonding lugs are located at the top of the
junction box.
