120 Volt Electrical Installation
Always follow applicable local, state and federal codes
and guidelines.
Use only a dedicated electrical line with a 15 amp
breaker.
Cord-and-plug connections may not use a cord longer
than 15 feet (4.6 m) and must be plugged into a
dedicated 15 amp GFCI connection (NEC 680.42(A)
(2)). Do not use extension cords!
Always use a weatherproof-covered receptacle.
Receptacle shall be located not less than 5 feet (1.5
m) from and not exceeding 10 feet (3.0 m) from the
inside wall of the spa. (NEC 680.43(A))
Do not bury the power cord. If your cord becomes
damaged, replace it before next usage.
All 120V spas must have a GFCI. This can be either a
15 amp GFCI receptacle or a 15 amp GFCI cord and
plug kit as shown (CKIT110 - P/N ELE09700086).
