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.
How To Pass The Cable Through The Spa Enclosure
Polysteel Frame with Polyethylene Bottom and Polysteel Panels
a) You can choose to notch the polysteel panel so you can pass the cable/conduit through and still be
able to remove/replace the panel for servicing. You should consider securing the cable or conduit to
the spa's metal frame where cable/conduit passes through the cabinet.
b) You may also route a cable up under the corner. The curved panel is flexible enough and there is
enough space to run the cable this way. Removing the corner may help you to do this easier.
c) On a concrete pad where you have a conduit or cable coming up within the perimeter of the spa, you
can easily cut an opening in the polyethylene bottom to access the cable or conduit/wires. See above
table for recommended opening location.
You may wish to insulate any opening or cut-out you make in the spa's cabinet panel or corner or bottom to
keep cold air and small animals out.

DOC: OM-INSPIRATION-19E
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; 6" (15cm) Dimension A in from
the left and 6" (15cm) 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.
