8. Mount the panel.
Dry fit the Panel against the mounting surface to be
sure there are no high points that need to be removed.
Clean the mating surfaces and then apply a bead
of silicone adhesive. Remove the masking from the
double sided adhesive strips. Carefully push the extra
6" to 8" of cable into the conduit as you position the
Panel. Seat the Panel into the silicone, being sure it is
level or square or parallel with surrounding surfaces.
Peel backing off adhesive strips. Push the Panel firmly
against the mounting surface so that the adhesive
strips grasp firmly to the mounting surface. The
adhesive strips will hold the Panel in position while the
silicone cures.

5. Cut the excess 1" conduit flush with the final
finished surface.
After all finish work has been completed (plaster, tile,
coping stone, deck finished, etc.), cut the 1" conduit
flush with the finished surface. Sawing the conduit
will not produce a flush surface, so grind, sand, or file
as necessary. After cutting flush, deburr the inside
diameter of the conduit.
6. Pull the panel cable through the conduit.
An electrician's fish is required for pulling the wire
through the conduit. For long pulls, wire lubricant
is recommended.
Push the fish from the System Control Center to the
Panel location. After the fish has exited the conduit at
the Panel location, fasten the cable to the fish.
With one person pulling the cable and one person at
the Panel location assuring that no kinks or knots occur,
pull the cable through the conduit and into the low
voltage compartment of the System Control Center.
ATTENTION: If the cable on the spa panel is not long
enough to reach the System Control Center, do not add
length to the cable by splicing additional cable onto
the cable; obtain a spa panel with a cable that is long
enough to reach.
7. Make the final connection.
Route the cable to the top of the printed circuit board to
the 4-position terminal blocks labeled COM A,
COM B, and COM C. The panel may be connected to any
one of these terminal blocks. After allowing for a small
service loop, cut off the excess cable. Remove
1” to 2” of the cable jacket and strip 1/4” of the
insulation off of the four wires. Connect the wires
to one of the terminal blocks using the following
wire table.
