EUROPEAN ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION REQUIREMENT’S

HAVE YOUR ELECTRICIAN READ THE FOLLOWING INFORMATION

BEFORE INSTALLATION BEGINS

Electrical connections made improperly, or the use of wire incorrectly sized, may continually

blow fuses in the electrical equipment box, may damage the internal electrical controls and

components. Any of these conditions may be unsafe and will void the warranty.

It is the responsibility of the swim spa owner to ensure that electrical connections are made by

a qualied electrician in accordance with the National Electrical code / IEC and any local and

state electrical codes in force at the time of installation.

These connections must be made in accordance with the wiring diagrams found inside the

control box. This equipment has been designed to operate on 50Hz, alternating current

only, 230 volts are required. Make sure that power is not applied while performing electrical

installation. A copper bonding lug has been provided on the electrical equipment pack to allow

connection to local ground points. The ground wire must be at least 10 AWG copper wire

and must be connected securely to a grounded metal surface such as a cold water pipe. The

electrical supply for your swim spa must include a 32 AMP switch or circuit breaker to open all

non-grounded supply conductors to comply with section 422-20 of the National Electrical code

/ IEC. This disconnect must be readily accessible to the swim spas occupants, but installed

at least ve feet from the swim spa but within sight. A ground fault circuit interrupter (GFCI)

must be used to comply with section 680-42 of the National Electrical code / IEC. A GFCI

is designed to automatically shut off power to a piece of equipment when a current fault is

detected.

Power hook-up to the swim spa must be a 230 volt 4 wire plus ground (10 AWG copper)

(Where 3 phase power is used)

Route the cable into the equipment area for nal hookup to terminals inside the control panel.

The swim spa must be hooked up to a “dedicated” 230 volt, 32 amp breaker and GFCI. The

term “dedicated” means the electrical circuit for the swim spa is not being used for any other

electrical items (patio lights, appliances, garage circuits, etc.) If the swim spa is connected to

a non-dedicated circuit, overloading will result in “nuisance tripping” which requires resetting

of the breaker switch located in the house main electrical panel.
