Safety Considerations for Pool & Hot Tub Wiring

A pool will often require plenty of power to run things like pumps, lighting systems, and accessory outlets, while a jacuzzi, spa, or hot tub wiring circuit also needs a 240-volt line to power the water heater. Because the wiring systems will be used in wet locations, proper grounding is especially important, and most installations will require GFCI protection on the wiring and receptacles. Some things to keep in mind during the installation of a hot tub or pool include:

  • Power lines – Hot tubs and pools should not be installed under overhead power lines, according to NEC requirements.
  • Underground wiring – Underground wiring should be avoided if possible, or placed in a suitable raceway or conduit when necessary.
  • Outlets – Outlets should be placed no closer than 6 feet to the pool or hot tub, and any that are between 6 and 20 feet away must be GFCI protected. At least one convenience outlet must be placed within 20 feet of an in-ground pool, and outlets for pumps or motors should be no further than 10 feet away.
  • Light fixtures – Fixtures less than 10 feet away or 5 feet above a pool or hot tub must be GFCI protected.
  • Low-voltage wiring – Low-voltage wiring must be at least 10 feet away from a hot tub or pool, even if it is GFCI protected.
