ELECTRICAL INSTALLATION
A qualified and licensed electrician in accordance with the National Electric Code (NEC)
Article 680, Canadian Electric Code, and with any local codes must accomplish the electrical
installation.
All connections must be made according to the electrical installation label on the outside of the
control box. Follow the instructions from the label if they are different than the instructions in this
manual. If your electrician is not absolutely sure how to connect your system correctly, call your local
dealer. Any mistake may be costly and invalidate your equipment warranty.
The GFCI (Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter) is a mandatory electrical safety device required for
all portable spas and hot tubs as specified in the National Electrical Code Article 680-42. The
GFCI in your particular installation may be installed at the electrical service panel, a separate
sub-panel or built into your Hydro-Quip System.
Your spa equipment requires a DEDICATED CIRCUIT. No other appliances or lights can be on
this circuit. Refer to equipment data label for power supply requirements of your spa equipment.
Use copper conductors ONLY. The ground must be sized following the National Electric Code,
Table 250-95.
NOTE: Due to the electrical requirements of some models, it may be required to SPLIT the
incoming electrical service to accommodate the GFCI Circuit Breaker limits. Contact your
electrician if you need additional information on this topic.

Universal Systems require a Neutral wire therefore the service required is as follows: 120-volt
systems require a three-wire electrical service including ground, consisting of Line 1 (Black),
Neutral (White) and Ground (Green) (system Line 2 (Blue) connected together with the
Neutral (White). 240-volt systems require a four wire electrical service including ground,
consisting of Line 1 (Black), Line 2 (Red), Neutral (White) and Ground (Green).

ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS
If your system was configured to include a 120VAC power cord, ensure that the proper
receptacle has been installed (a dedicated circuit is required). DO NOT under any circumstances
modify a 20 Amp plug to fit into a 15 Amp receptacle or use an extension cord. Doing so will
create hazardous conditions and/or void the warranty.

Power from main breaker panel to service disconnect within line-of-site of the spa to portable spa
control equipped with buit-in GFCI.
Refer to the System Data Label for equipment voltage and maximum amperage draws.
Install proper size Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or circuit breaker, then proper sized
wiring and bonding wire. For Power conductor size, refer to the National Electric Code Table 310-
16. For Ground conductor size, refer to the National Electric Code Table 250-122.
A bonding lug has been provided on the control box to allow connection to local ground points.
To reduce the risk of electrical shock, a solid copper bonding wire should be connected from this
lug to any metal ladders, water pipes or other metal object within 5 feet of the spa.
WARNING - BE SURE THAT YOUR POWER SUPPLY CIRCUIT CAN ADEQUATELY HANDLE
THE AMPERAGE YOU SELECT.
The control input power wiring may have been provided. Following NEC and local codes in effect
at the time of installation, connect (refer to wiring diagram located on the inside of control hinged
cover) the Black wire to input Line 1, Blue wire to input Line 2 (if applicable), White wire to
Neutral and the Green wire to ground.

GFCI WIRING DETAIL
When a GFCI circuit breaker is used in the installation of your spa, it is important that it has been
properly installed. Often this component has been improperly installed causing the breaker to trip
the instant the system is turned on. Below is an illustration of a typical GFCI breaker installation.
WARNING: Refer to Circuit Breaker Manufacturers installation instructions. This illustration is
meant to be a guide for Field Technicians and is not intended to override or substitute the
instructions supplied with the circuit breaker.

SYSTEM CONFIGURATION
Congratulations on your purchase of the Universal Series Control System from Hydro-Quip. This
series of controls has been developed to allow you complete flexibility during your installation.
This Control System is configured to allow you to choose the voltage for each circuit at the time
of installation. We highly recommend that all component cords be replaced at the time of
installation.
The Universal conversion procedure MUST be accomplished PRIOR to connecting input
service wiring. This control has been shipped from the factory with ALL circuits wired for
120 VAC.
VERIFY YOUR COMPONENT VOLTAGE REQUIREMENTS: 120 VAC will not harm a 240 VAC
component if operated temporarily. 240 VAC WILL harm a 120 VAC component almost
immediately. This is the reason we ship all circuits in the 120 VAC configuration. Hydro-Quip
cannot be held responsible for mis-wire related damage to components.
Note: To utilize the Universal circuitry (120/240VAC), incoming service must be 240V/4-Wire.
Hydro-Quip has made the conversion process simple and easy. After you have
determined the voltage of your components (pump(s), air blower, ozonator etc.), you are
now ready to complete the conversion process. Color-Coded Neutral Wire connectors
have been provided to easily distinguish the circuit to be converted. By simply moving a
Neutral wire from the Neutral side of the conversion terminal block, clearly marked and
located inside the control enclosure, to the Line 2 side completes the circuit conversion.
Follow the illustrations and step-by-step instructions.
Step 1
Circuit Color Chart

Note: Ozonator Circuit 120V ONLY
Blue Connector = Air Blower
Remove 2(ea) screws and open
front cover of enclosure. Locate
the conversion terminal block and
desired connector (using ‘Circuit
Color Chart” above). Carefully
remove connector from the Neutral
side.

CONFIGURATION
Step 2
Reinstall the connector onto the
“Line 2” side. The conversion is
complete and the circuit is now
ready for a 240VAC component.
Note: Repeat this procedure for
each circuit. Refer to “Circuit
Color Chart” on previous page.
HEATER CONVERSION
Step 1
Your system can be set for
High Current (HC) or Low
Current (LC) operation (the
connection is pre-configured at
the factory for low current). In
the Low Current configuration
the heater will automatically
turn off when the high-speed of
the pump or the air blower is
activated. For unrestricted
High Current operation, simply
turn input power off, locate and
disconnect the conversion plug
and receptacle.

All systems include colored component receptacles for ease of identification. Match the
component plug with its mating receptacle using the “Receptacle Identification Chart” on the
following page.
CONNECTION
Step 2
Now reinstall the conversion
plug into the High Current (HC)
conversion receptacle. The
conversion is complete.
Reapply power and operate
the spa normally. When the
high-speed of the pump or the
air blower are turned on, the
heater will not shut off.

Receptacle Color Chart
Assure that all plugs and receptacles are fully
connected. A loose connection can cause damage to
the system.
Note: Hydro-Quip utilizes the BLACK wire for
High-Speed and the RED wire for Low-Speed in
Two-Speed Pump Circuits. Keep this in mind
when connecting a Two-Speed pump that has not
been purchased with the system.
