DANGER!
Risk of Electrocution
All electrical connections must be performed by a qualied licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electric Code
(NEC) following state and local electrical codes in eect at the time of the installation.
Connecting the spa to an improperly wired circuit will eliminate many of the spa’s built in safety features which may result in
re, electrocution, or other risk of injury. Damages to the spa which are the result of improper wiring are not covered under the
manufacturer’s warranty and will terminate all listings from independent listing agencies.
The electrical supply for your spa must be housed in a weatherproof service box and include a suitably rated switch and Ground
Fault Circuit Interrupter between the main service entrance and the spa to open all ungrounded supply conductors in compliance with
Section 422-20 of the National Electrical Code/USA, ANSI/NFPA/70 and in compliance with independent listing agencies. This might
be used as a shut o switch, and must be installed so that it is accessible to the spa occupants, but not within 5 feet (1.5m) of the spa.
The wiring specications in this manual are for standard installations where the main power supply is within 40 feet of the spa. If the
main power supply is more than 40 feet away, the electrician must make appropriate modications.
The electrical instructions and diagrams contained in this manual and inside the spa control box are included as a guideline for the
licensed electrician installing the electrical connections and vary by model. Please refer to the wiring diagram inside the spa control
box for model specic connection instructions. All wiring connections must be watertight.
All connections must be made using copper conductors only. Do not use aluminum wire. Connection wires, circuit breakers, and/
or fuses, must all be sized to accommodate the Total Ampere load.
Never turn power on to the spa when it is not lled with water. DO NOT connect power to the empty spa. When power is supplied
to the spa, it automatically activates critical components within the spa, such as the pumps, controls and the heating. If power is
supplied to the components before it is lled with water, the components may be damaged instantly. Damage that occurs to the
spa because power was supplied before it is lled with water is not covered by the manufacturer’s warranty.
Prior to performing any service, turn OFF all primary electrical equipment at the main circuit breaker or disconnect panel.
Your spa must be permanently connected (hard wired) to a power supply that is protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter
(GFCI). Power supplied to your spa must be a dedicated circuit with no other appliances, lighting, or other electronic components
powered by the circuit.
Do not permit any electrical appliances like lights, telephones, MP3 players, radios or televisions within ve feet (1.5m) of the
