ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION

All electrical wiring must be installed in accordance with the National Electrical Code and with all

local codes. All wiring shall be done by a qualified electrician. Run one, two or three branch circuits

(as required) from the main electrical service panel to the pump area of the framing structure to

provide power to the unit.

Electrical components have specific wiring requirements. Refer to the matrix below for the electrical

supply requirements for the whirlpool bathtub and factory installed components.

Branch circuits must be rated for 110 – 120 volts. Use 12 Gauge, 3 conductor cable for the circuits.

If the length run exceeds 100 feet, check with local codes for requirements. Install moisture proof

junction box(s) 6” above the floor at the pump end of the framing for each circuit.
