ELECTRICAL CONNECTION GENERAL
INFORMATION
A. LOCATING A CONDUIT WITHIN A CONCRETE PAD
B. SUPPLY CABLE ENTRY INTO SPA EQUIPMENT AREA
•
You may enter the spa cavity at any other point around spa provided you have reviewed the location and
determined there is no interference. You may also decide to enter at an adjoining wall (depending on the
positioning of the spa) and route a conduit along the spa kicker. Ask your electrician for his/her advice in
these matters.
•
In all cases the best side for entry of the supply cable is the side to your left when you are standing at the
equipment panel.
•
Right side entry is possible; however, this may involve additional supply cable, parts and time.
Included with your spa Owner's Manual is a black electrical bulkhead fitting.
•
Hole size required: 41mm (1 5/8")
•
This fitting is designed to accept 1" electrical conduit on both sides. It may also be used with electrical strain
relief fittings.
•
The corner to the right of the equipment and keypad is already in use for the spa drain.
•
The other corners of the spa have a bottom flat spot where a hole can be drilled and the electrical bulkhead
fitting installed. Pick one of the other 3 corners that works best for your electrician to route cable or conduit
into the underside of the spa. We suggest you look at how the drain was installed and then drill a small pilot
hole before committing to a large holesaw.
Sunrise Spas 2019 Ultimate Collection Owner's Manual
If your intent is to bring a conduit and power wires up under the spa we suggest that it
enter the spa cavity in the front, left corner; 10-12" (25.4cm – 30.5cm) Dimension A
in from the left and 10-12" (25.4cm – 30.5cm) Dimension B up from the front. See A
& B on the diagram below. This location will allow you to stay clear of spa pumps and
other equipment while giving you a short and easy access to the left side of the spa
pack, where the electrical entry hole and terminal block are located.
