Electrical connections made improperly, or the use of wire gauge sizes for incurring
power which are too small, may continually blow fuses in the electrical equipment box,
may damage the internal electrical controls an components, may be unsafe and in any
case will void your 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 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 60Hz.
alternating current only, 120 volts are required. Make sure that power is not applied
while performing any electrical installation. A copper bonding lug has been provided on
theelectrical equipment pack to allow connection to local ground points. The ground
wire must be at least 14 AWG copper wire (unless local orstate codes require a heavier
gauge wire) and must be connected securelyto a grounded metal structure such as a
cold water pipe. All equipment packs are wired for 120 VAC only. The only electrical
supply for your spa must include a 15 AMP switch or circuit breaker toopen all non-
grounded supply conductors to comply with section 422-20of the National Electrical
Code. The disconnect must be readily accessibleto the spa occupants, but installed at
least five feet from the spa. A Ground-Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) (provided with
the spa) must be used to comply with section 680-42 of the National Electrical Code. A
ground fault is a current leak from any one of the supply conductors to ground. A GFCI
is designed to automatically shut off power to a pieceof equipment when a ground fault
is detected.
power hook-up to the spa must be 120 volt 2 wire plus ground
(14 aWG copper).
Route the cable into the equipment area for final hook-up to terminals inside the control
panel. The spa must be hooked up to a "dedicated" 120 volt, 15 amp. The term "dedi-
cated" 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 at the house electrical panel.
Permanently Connected Equipment Assembly with Pump(s), Heaters, Luminaine, Ozone, Spa
Side Control(s), Pump shut off device.
NOTE: Some of the above components may be optional or not available with every
spa model.
DO NOT DIVE.
