Power Configurations for 680 Burlington Models (North America, 60Hz)
This section describes the power configuration choices (Standard 50 Amp and Alternate 40
AMP) for Burlington hot tub models.
Cong. #1
Standard 50A Configuration
(factory setting)
240 VAC/50A • 3-wire configuration (2
hots and a ground)
50A dual-pole GFCI breaker (hard •
wired only)
Electrical current draw of 36A •
In this Standard 50A configuration, the heater
does operate while the jets pump is running
in high-speed.
Config. #2
Alternate 40A Configuration
(For homes where 240 VAC/50A power
is unavailable).
240 VAC/40A 3-wire configuration (2 •
hots and a ground)
40A dual-pole GFCI breaker (hard •
wired only)
Electrical current draw of 26A•
If the home’s electrical system does not
have the full 240 VAC/50A, the spa may be
connected to a 240V/40A power source after
a qualified electrician makes a minor circuit
board modification.
In this configuration, the heater does not run
while the jets pump is running in high-speed.
Note
Wire size must meet NEC recommendations and is determined by
maximum current draw and length or run.
Important:
All of the alternative electrical congurations require
a qualied technician to perform minor circuit board modications. To avoid
damage to the spa, do not activate power to the spa until these modications
have been made. We recommend Square-D or Cutler Hammer circuit
breakers.
