Discuss Swa install to hot tub in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Just a reminder people, if you are using 90°C cable for the calcs, you have to make sure the equipment the cable is connected to is also rated for 90°C.
 
If anything is going to run anywhere near 90 degrees in a hot tub install, then that thing needs to be immersed in the tub water. Tubs are expensive enough to run, without heating soil.
At the distance involved, voltage drop considerations will dwarf the current rating of the cable, so cable temp. is not likely to be a concern.
