EUROPEAN ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
REQUIREMENT'S
HAVE YOUR ELECTRICIAN READ THE FOLLOWING
INFORMATION BEFORE INSTALLATION BEGINS
Electrical connections made improperly, or the use of wire incorrectly sized, may
continually blow fuses in the electrical equipment box, may damage the internal
electrical controls and components. Any of these conditions may be unsafe and will
void the warranty.
It is the responsibility of the spa owner to ensure that electrical connections are made
by a qualified electrician in accordance with the National Electrical code / IEC and any
local and state electrical codes in force at the time of installation.
These connections must be made in accordance with the wiring diagrams found
inside the control box. This equipment has been designed to operate on 50Hz,
alternating current only, 230 volts are required. Make sure that power is not applied
while performing electrical installation. A copper bonding lug has been provided on the
electrical equipment pack to allow connection to local ground points. The ground wire
must be at least 10 AWG copper wire and must be connected securely to a grounded
metal surface such as a cold water pipe. The electrical supply for your spa must include
a 32 AMP switch or circuit breaker to open all non-grounded supply conductors to
comply with section 422-20 of the National Electrical code / IEC. This disconnect must
be readily accessible to the spas occupants, but installed at least five feet from the spa
but within sight. A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI) must be used to comply with
section 680-42 of the National Electrical code / IEC. A GFCI is designed to automatically
shut off power to a piece of equipment when a current fault is detected.
Power hook-up to the spa must be a 230 volt 4 wire plus ground (10 AWG copper)
(Where 3 phase power is used)
Route the cable into the equipment area for final hookup to terminals inside the control
panel. To install the wiring for the in.xe spa control, you'll need a Phillips screwdriver
and a flat screwdriver. Loosen the 2 screws of the Spa Pack door and open it. Remove
5 1/2" of cable insulation. Strip away 1" of each wire insulation. Pull the cable through
the cutout of the box and secure it with a strain relief (1" NPT strain relief; hole diameter:
1.335"). Make sure that only the uncut sheathing is clamped at this opening.
Push the color-coded wires into the terminals as indicated on the sticker and use the
flat screwdriver to tighten the screws on the terminals. After making sure wire connec-
tions are secure, push them back into the box and close the door. Tighten the 2 screws
of the Spa Pack door. Connect the bonding conductor to the bonding lug on the front
of the in.xe Spa Pack (a grounded electrode conduc- tor shall be used to connect the
equipment grounding con- ductors). The spa must be hooked up to a "dedicated" 230
volt, 32 amp breaker and GFCI. The term "dedicated" means the electrical circuit for
the spa is not being used for any other electrical items (patio lights, appliances, garage
circuits, etc.) If the spa is connected to a non-dedicated circuit, overloading will result in
"nuisance tripping" which requires resetting of the breaker switch located in the house
main electrical panel.
