ELECTRICAL BOX DIAGRAM
INFORMATION ON WIRE
If you plan to operate your spa using a 220V electrical supply, you will be
required to install a 220V 40A (minimum) GFCI breaker.
You have to connect your spa to this GFCI breaker and your home electrical
panel.
Which wire to use?
- If the spa is more than 50’ from the wall outlet: a grounded 6 AWG/3 wire
- If the spa is located within 50’ from the wall outlet: a grounded 8 AWG/3 wire
Don’t forget, we recommend using a certified electrician to install your GFCI
breaker and to connect your spa to your house electrical panel. If your spa
only runs on a 220V electrical circuit, no conversion is needed for the spa
pack.
If your spa is convertible from 110V to 220V, you will find instructions to
convert the spa pack on the inside of the spa pack cover.
