WIRE YOUR SPA PER ONE OF THE DIAGRAMS MOST SIMILAR TO YOUR HOUSE PANEL
ALL WIRES FEEDING THE SPA ARE TO BE THE SAME GAUGE. GROUND WIRES ARE TO BE INSULATED AS WELL. WHEN USING A GROUND ROD, THE GROUND WIRE TO THE ROD SHOULD BE #6 BARE COPPER.
ALL SPAS REQUIRE THE USE OF AN ISOLATED GFCI PROTECTED CIRCUIT. THE INSTALLATION OF A DISCONNECT IS REQUIRED NO MORE THAN TEN (10) VISUAL FEET FROM THE SPA AND NOT LESS THAN FIVE (5) FEET.
THIS REQUIREMENT IS TO ASSURE THAT WHEN POWER IS DISCONNECTED FROM THE SPA, POWER CAN NOT BE INADVERTENTLY TURNED BACK ON. |
1. The spa must be permanently connected (hardwired) to the power supply. No extension cords or plug-type connections are to be used in conjunction with the operation of the spa. Failure to supply power to the spa that is not in accordance with these instructions could create a potential health hazard and will void both the manufacturer’s warranty and the independent testing agency listing.
2. The National Electrical Code (NEC) requires that the power supply to this spa must be a dedicated, ground fault circuit (GFCI) protected circuit with no other appliances or lights sharing power on this circuit.
3. Refer to the wiring diagram posted inside the electrical equipment door to determine the current, voltage, and wire size requirements for your spa.
4. THHN type wire is recommended. The wire size for the distance of the wire run must conform to NEC and local electrical codes. |
5. To ensure proper connections use copper conductors only.
DO NOT USE ALUMINUM WIRE.
6. The spas’ power terminal strip is located within the electrical control box.
7. Feed supply conductors through power supply inlets provided on the spa and install into the control box. Modifications to the electrical equipment box are not permitted. Drilling holes in the electrical control box to provide access for wires in areas other than those provided for will void the manufacturer’s warranty and the independent testing agency listing.
8. Connect wires to terminal block (TBI) color for color. All wires must be connected or damage may result. TIGHTEN SECURELY! |
