240 Volt Installation
Permanently Connected
Models:
• The 400 Series models (461, 470, 471, 472, 480,
481, and 482) must be connected to a 240-volt elec-
tric service. The 351 Base unit is convertible to
either 120-volt or 240-volt, but comes factory wired
for 240-volt service. The 351 Deluxe model must
be connected to a 240-volt service.
Refer to the manufacturer's nameplate located
on the kickplate to determine your spa's ampere
requirements.
Electrical Requirements:
• 240 Volts, 60Hz, Single Phase, 40 or 50 amp. 4
wire service (line 1, line 2, neutral, and ground) or,
*30 Amp Option
Note: The heater can be activated only with the
pump on low speed. Only the spa light can be oper-
ating at the same time without disabling the heater.
See your authorized Coleman Spas® dealer to
select this option.
Spas installed for 240 volt operation require a 4-
wire, 40 or 50 amp., 240 volt subfeed in non-metallic
pipe to the spa equipment compartment (line 1, line 2,
neutral and ground). A green colored terminal (or wire
connector marked "G", or "GR", "Grounding") is pro-
vided in the control box. To reduce the risk of electri-
cal shock, connect this terminal or connector to the
grounding terminal of your electrical service or supply
panel with a continuous green insulated copper wire
equivalent to the circuit conductor supplying this
equipment, but no smaller than No. 12 AWG. A second
pressure wire connector is provided on the surface of
the control box for bonding to local ground points. To
reduce the risk of electrical shock, this connector
should be bonded with a No. 6 AWG copper wire to
any metal ladders, water pipes, or any metal within 5
feet of the spa.
Copper wire is strongly recommended for all
electrical connections.
• 240 Volts, 60Hz, Single Phase, 60 amp. 4 wire

Note: (30 and 40 Amp options) Units operated at
240 volts must have all electrical connections
made by a qualified licensed electrician in accor-
dance with the National Electric Code and
state/local codes in effect at the time of installation.
