Electrical Terminations
With all SCS Industries Spas, you will usually find the Control Box at the same end of the Spa as the controller
Touchpad Control Centre.
There are a number of electric controllers that you may find on your SCS Industries Spa. The
Balboa
system is the
unit most widely used by SCS Industries. If it requires direct wiring the terminal connection can be found inside the
Control Box.
The Balboa system has a Terminal Block in the control
box similar to that in adjacent photo.
To gain entry to the Engine Bay, remove service access
doors with Allenkey (supplied). The Engine Bay can be
found below the Digital Touchpad Control Centre.
Be sure to take extreme care when connecting power
cables to the unit, as incorrect connection can cause
damage to the Control System.
Power supply to the Spa needs to be on a dedicated
circuit and be protected by a Residual Current Device
(Safety Switch), as well as the correct size cable and
circuit breaker protection.
In-ground Spas are controlled from air buttons located on the topside of the Spa. All electrical equipment must
be located away from the Spa itself. (The distance may vary, depending on the state and country codes and
standards). Please read instructions supplied with the air switches in relation to mounting distance from the air
buttons installed in the Spa shell.
The Spa is fitted with a Balboa Touchpad Control Centre. The instruction sheet for your Spa Control Centre will be
supplied with your Spa. The instruction sheet shows step by step operation procedures to operate pumps, blower,
light (if applicable), ozone (if applicable) also for the control and setting of filter times and filter durations.
