4. Make the Electrical Connections – Canada
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Make sure that the power has been disconnected before
performing the following procedures.
WARNING: Risk of electric shock. Connect the pump and heater (if included) to a properly
grounded, grounding-type Ground-Fault Circuit-Interrupter (GFCI) or Residual Current Device
(RCD). This will provide additional protection against line-to-ground shock hazard. Do not remove
the grounding pins from the plugs. Do not use grounding adapters.
NOTE: A label identifying the model number and electrical rating of the whirlpool is located near the
whirlpool pump.
NOTICE: If the unit does not include a heater, the pump is equipped with a cord and plug.
Locate and secure each supplied junction box (if included) a minimum of 1-1/2″ (38 mm) above the
subfloor.
The whirlpool controls and system have been prewired at the factory. A qualified electrician should
make a routine service connection to the junction box (if included).
Connect service to the junction box (if included). The 60 Hz model junction box contains line (black)
and neutral (white) wires and a ground lug.
A 120 V, 15 A dedicated circuit is required for the pump. A separate dedicated circuit is required for
the heater (if included). No other load should be on these circuits. Provide a Class A GFCI or RCD.
Provide a separate equipment grounding conductor for the inside ground or ground lug. The
conductor must not be connected to any current-carrying conductor.
