Jacuzzi 7260 manual Electrical Connections, For 120 VAC units, For 230 VAC units

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Electrical Connections

Separate circuits for all (except the Fuzion 7260 Dual motor) tubs, each must be protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), are required for the pump/motor and the RapidHeatTM Heater. The Fuzion 7260 Dual motor tubs require two (2) separate circuits, each must be protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI), for each pump/motor and RapidHeatTM Heater combination.

Refer to the electrical specification for each model on pages 6 - 7. Install duplex outlets to the studwall underneath the bathtub, at least 4 inches (10,2 cm) above the floor or in accordance with local building or electrical codes. Duplex outlets are not provided. Because these units are manufactured with an electronic control panel no remote switch or timer is necessary.

Tubs with electronic control panels combine the electrical requirements of the pump/motor and electronic controls into a control box. For these units the power supply cord from the pump/motor runs to the control box. The power supply cord from the control box should be connected to the correctly rated amperage GFCI circuit.

Before installing electrical connections, inspect the pump/motor and heater nameplates and confirm you have 120 VAC, 20 AMP and 15 AMP or 230 VAC, 20 AMP service requirements. The GFCI circuits must match these require- ments. Care must be taken:

FOR 120 VAC units

Connect the 120 VAC, 20 AMP pump/motor or control box power cord ONLY to the 120 VAC, 20 AMP GFCI circuit Connect the 120 VAC, 15 AMP heater power cord ONLY to the 120 VAC, 15 AMP GFCI circuit.

FOR 230 VAC units

Connect one 230 VAC, 20 AMP control box power cord controlling one pump/motor and heater set ONLY to one 230 VAC, 20 AMP GFCI circuit.

Connect the second 230 VAC, 20 AMP control box power cord controlling the other pump/motor and heater set ONLY to the other 230 VAC, 20 AMP GFCI circuit.

Do NOT switch power cords and GFCI circuits.

With a #8 solid copper wire (not provided), bond the heater to the house electrical panel or approved local bond. A bonding lug is provided on the heater. With another #8 solid copper wire (not provided), bond the pump/motor to the house electrical panel or approved local bond. A bonding lug is provided on the pump/motor.

At initial start-up and before each use thereafter with power ON, push the GFCI test button on each circuit. The reset button should pop out. Push this button in to reset. If the interrupter fails to operate in this manner, there is a ground current flowing or a device malfunction, indicating the possibility of electrical shock. Turn OFF power and do not use the bath until the source of the problem has been identified and corrected.

DANGER: RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK. Connect only to a circuit protected by a Ground Fault Circuit Inter- rupter (GFCI).

CAUTION: Operating the motor/pump without enough water in the bath can cause leaking and permanent damage to the pump. Before power is applied to the installation, make sure the switch is in the OFF position to avoid pump damage.
