AND
OPTIONAL PACE,
STRIDE, SX AND TX CONVERTED SPA
MODEL)
Your spa contains a control box designed to operate at 230V, 60Hz. Installation of a 50 amp. dedicated circuit is
required for Relay & Rhythm spas and optional for the other spa models. The control box must be hard wired directly
to a subpanel protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). The subpanel containing GFCI breakers
is included with the Relay & Rhythm spa models only. Purchase the subpanel from you dealer for the converted
models when converting to 230 volts.
IMPORTANT NOTE: All electrical connections to the control box must be accomplished by a qualified electrician in
accordance with the National Electrical Code and in accordance with any local electrical codes in effect
at the time and
place of
installation.
All electrical connections
must be made in
accordance with the wiring
information contained in this
manual and on the back
of the field wiring access
panel of the control box. A
licensed electrician should
install a four-wire electrical
service (two line voltages,
one neutral, one ground)
from the main electrical
service panel to the subpanel.
Your electrician should mount the subpanel in the vicinity of the spa but it should not be closer than five feet (1.5 m)
from the spa water edge (NEC 680-38 to 41-A-3).
INSTALLATION NOTE: After the spa has been installed, your electrician can connect the conduit from the subpanel
to the spa’s control box and then complete the wiring connections in the control box. NOTE: Complete step-by-ste
p
Installation and Wiring Instructions for all models are included in the Owner’s Manual.
WARNING: Removing or bypassing the GFCI breakers in the subpanel at any time will result in an unsafe spa and
will void the warranty.
