Electrical Installation
A licensed electrician must accomplish the electrical installation in accordance with
the National Electric Code(NEC) Article 680, and any local codes in effect at the
time of installation.
Refer to the System Data Label for equipment voltage and maximum amperage
draws.
The GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is a mandatory electrical safety device
required for all portable spas and hot tubs as specified in the National Electrical
Code Article 680-42. The GFCI in your particular installation may be installed at the
electrical service panel or a separate sub-panel.
Use copper conductors ONLY. The ground must be sized following the National
Electric Code, Table 250-122. For Power conductor size, refer to the National
Electric Code Table 310-16.
A bonding lug has been provided on the control box to allow connection to local
ground points. To reduce the risk of electrical shock, a solid copper bonding wire
should be connected from this lug to any metal objects within 5 feet of the spa.
The NEC and most local codes require that a “disconnect” be installed within
“line-of-site” of the spa.

IMPORTANT- If your electrician is not absolutely sure how to connect
your system correctly, call your local dealer. Any mistake may be costly
and void your equipment warranty.
CAUTION: Do not connect or disconnect any components while the power is on.
All connections must be done with the power off as it may cause damage to the
system.
**Any resulting damages are not covered under manufacturer’s warranty**
CAUTION: Damage may occur to the circuit board and spaside if the spaside
plug is not properly aligned to the receptacle on the circuit board or if the
spaside plug is connected or disconnected while the power is on.
**Any resulting damages are not covered under manufacturer’s warranty**
