converted to 16A are only capable of heating the water when
the circulation pump is in low-speed, not high-speed. is
heating limitation is acceptable in most climates as well as indoor
installations.
230V~/50Hz 16A, 16A Dual Service: Operation of spa is
identical to single 32A service except that service is divided into
two separate 16A services.
400V~3N 16A x 3, 50Hz Service: Operation of spa is
identical to 32A service is divided into 3 separate 240V~ service
with one shared neutral.
New Installations and
Re-Installations
ese instructions apply to both new installations and re-
installations which may occur when a spa is moved or relocated to
a new location.
120V~/60Hz Equipment
230V~/50 Hz Equipment
230V~/50 Hz spas are equipped with 230V~/50 Hz pumps
230V~ Equipment
is equipment allows for the spas to operate only on a 230V~/50
Hz electrical service.
Permanently-Connected 230V~/50Hz, 32A spas require an
RCD protected, 230V~50Hz, 32A Single-Service, or 16A Single
Service, or 16A-16A x2, 400V~, 3N, 50Hz, 16Ax3, dedicated
electrical circuit. It is important that this circuit is dedicated (not
being used by any other electrical appliance)
or the spa may not function properly. For specific conversion
instruction, please refer to the system wiring diagram inside
the Control System Box (located in the spa’s equipment
compartment). Installation must be in accordance with all
national and local wiring rules.
Connecting the electrical
service to the spa
IMPORTANT: Installation must be in accordance with
all national and local wiring rules and performed by a licensed
Electrician.
Step 1: Choose one of the three available conduit entry points.
(Yellow Black decal)
Step 2: Determine the conduit diameter and drill a hole that
is properly sized for the conduit (for 21mm conduit drill 30mm”
hole, for 27mm conduit drill 35mm hole). Use the + as the locator
for the center of the hole. e hole saw must go through two
layers of plastic. ere is a 25mm space between both layers.
Step 3: Push the conduit through the hole until it comes out
into the equipment area.
Step 4: Remove the faceplate to the Control System Box
Step 5: Connect the conduit to the Control System Box using a
Liquid Tight Connector.
Step 6: Run the required wires through the conduit to the
Control System Box.
Step 7: Connect the electrical service wires to the terminal
block located in the Control System Box.
Step 8: Replace the Control System Box faceplate and the
equipment compartment door. e electrical hook-up is complete.
Note: To conform with electrical codes, and to create a barrier
against pests, any holes created in the base of your
Villeroy & Boch Spa should be fitted with an appropriate
connector.
