HOT SPRING
ELECTRICAL WORK SHOULD BE DONE BY AN EXPERIENCED, LICENSED ELECTRICIAN. WE RECOMMEND THE USE
OF APPROPRIATE ELECTRICAL CONDUIT, FITTINGS AND WIRE FOR ALL CIRCUITS.
An electrical subpanel containing two GFCI breakers is included with each 230 volt spa. We recommend that this subpanel
be used to supply power and protect the spa.
This subpanel requires a 50 amp, single phase, 230 volt, four wire service (two line, one neutral, one ground). The
grounding conductor must be at least the same gauge as the line conductors, but not less than #8 AWG. A minimum
#8 AWG solid copper bond wire is also required.
Mount the subpanel in the vicinity of the spa, but not closer than five feet away, in accordance with all local codes. (N.E.C.
680-6c)
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
1. To connect the electrical service, first remove the screws from the equipment compartment door. Carefully pull the
door panel away and down in order to remove it completely from the spa.
4. Connect the #12 AWG, White wire, from the subpanel 20 amp breaker, terminal N (load neutral) to TB-1, terminal 6.
NOTE: The white neutral wire must be attached to the LOAD neutral on the 230 volt, 20 amp breaker (not to the neutral
