1. Install a 50-amp, GFCI overcurrent protective device in the electrical service panel.
2. The electrical supply for the spa must include a suitable rated switch or circuit breaker to shut off
the power supply (to comply with section 422-20 of the National Electrical Code, ANSI/NFPA 70-
1999). This disconnecting means must be readily accessible to the spa occupant, but must not be
within 5 feet of the spa. (see diagram below)
3. With the spa placed in its final location, power can be routed in two ways:
Under the spa cabinet- See figure 1 on pg. 11
- Determine placement of hole in floor so that conduit may enter between the spa shell and the
wooden cabinet.
- Move the spa to allow working room. Cut off the conduit above the floor surface.
- Use an LB on the conduit to permit wire pulling if required.
Through a power entrance opening drilled by an
electrician - See figure 2 on pg. 11
- Move the spa to allow working room. Use nonmetallic conduit and fittings. Cut off the conduit
above the floor surface to permit the installation of an LB at the power entrance opening height.
