IMPORTANT!
Remember, high voltage is still accessible in the house breaker
box even though you have turned off the spa breaker.
Keep in mind that a majority of R.C.D. tripping problems can be
attributed to incorrect wiring. R.C.D. troubleshooting usually
finds the problem.

conduit, routed to the R.C.D. breaker box. The brown should
be connected to the R.C.D. line-in. The blue load neutral con-
nects to the neutral in.
RCD LINE-OUT WIRING CHECK FOR 230 V DEDICATED
SYSTEM
The brown wire should connect to load out, the blue wire from
neutral out. All wires will exit the box via conduit routed to the
spa control system.
Once you have found all wiring correctly installed, begin
to check for proper voltage. If Correct Wiring is Verified,
check to see if the proper RCD is installed.
Check the label in the system box near TB1 to determine the UÊ
maximum amperage draw for the system.
Be sure the R.C.D. is rated for more amperage than the
UÊ
system will draw.
For a 230 V dedicated system, a 2-pole or 4-pole R.C.D. with
UÊ
no load neutral is acceptable.
For a detailed wiring checklist, please review the previous
UÊ
segment of this manual on proper R.C.D. wiring or the R.C.D.
manufacturer’s instructions.
If the wiring is correct and the R.C.D. will not reset, then
UÊ
unplug the pump and try to reset the R.C.D.
If the R.C.D. trips again, then unplug the blower and push
UÊ
the reset button. If the R.C.D. continues to trip, then do the
same procedure for the ozone generator.
If the R.C.D. stops tripping after you unplugged one of the
UÊ
spa’s components, turn off the power to the spa then plug in
each component except the one that tripped the R.C.D.
Power up the system. If the R.C.D. no longer trips, then you
UÊ
have correctly identified the problem.
Repair or replace the component as instructed by the spa
UÊ
manufacturer.
If you have unplugged all of the spa’s components and the
UÊ
R.C.D. still doesn’t reset, then the problem is most likely a
ground fault in the heater.
Disconnect the heater, and test.
