important: All of the alternative electrical configurations require
a qualified technician to perform minor circuit board modifications. To avoid
damage to the spa, do not activate power to the spa until these modifications
have been made. We recommend Square-D or Cutler Hammer circuit
breakers.
Power Configurations for 880 Maxxus Models (North America, 60Hz)
This section describes the power configuration choices (Standard 60 Amp or Alternate
50 Amp) for Maxxus hot tub models.
Config. #1
Standard 60A Configuration
(factory setting)
240 VAC/60A 3-wire configuration •
(2 hots and ground)
60A dual-pole GFCI breaker (hard
•
wired only)
Maximum electrical current draw
•
of 48A
In the Standard 60A configuration, the
heater operates while any two jets pumps
and the blower are running.
However, the heater does not operate when
all three jets pumps are running.
Config. #2
Alternate 50A Configuration
240 VAC/50A 3-wire configuration •
(2 hots and ground)
50A dual-pole GFCI breaker (hard
•
wired only)
Maximum electrical current draw
•
of 38A
If your home does not have 240 VAC/60A
power available, connect the spa to a 240
VAC/50A power source. Then, have a
qualified electrician modify the circuit board
to match the power source.
In this configuration, the heater yields the
same rapid temperature rise as in the 60A
configuration. However, the heater does
not operate while any two jets pumps are
running.
Note
Wire size must meet NEC recommendations and is determined by
maximum current draw and length or run.
