Electrical safety
Jacuzzi®” hydromassage products are safe appliances, manufac-
tured according to
EN 60335.2.60, EN 55014 and EN 55014-2
.
They are tested during production to guarantee user safety.
Installation must be carried out by qualified and authorized per-
sonnel, in compliance with current national provisions.
It is the responsibility of the installer to select proper
materials, carry out the work correctly and check the
condition of the system to which the unit will be con-
nected and the unit itself in order to ensure user safety.
Jacuzzi® whirlpool baths are Class “1” appliances and thus must
be securely anchored and permanently connected to the electric
mains and earth system
without any intermediate connections
.
The electrical system and earth system of the building
must be in working order and must comply with the le-
gal provisions and specific regulations in force in the
country of use.
An appropriate device must be provided, as part of the
fixture and installed in compliance with current regu-
lations, which disconnects the equipment from the
mains.
For connection to the mains, it is necessary to install a disconnect-
ing multiple-pole switch that provides full disconnection under
overvoltage category III conditions and place it in an area that com-
plies with the safety prescriptions for bathrooms.
The switch and other electrical devices must be located,
in compliance with regulations, in an area that cannot
be reached by the person using the appliance.
If the building’s electrical system is not able to guaran-
tee a stabile power supply, it is recommended to install
a voltage stabiliser that suitably dimensioned for the
required power upstream of the equipment.
The installation of electrical devices and other equipment (sock-
ets, switches, etc.) in the bathroom must be in strict accordance
with the legal requirements and regulations for each country. In
particular, no electrical installations are to be made within the
area surrounding the appliance in a range of 60 cm horizontally
and 225 cm vertically.
