I am confused about weather a self contained hot tub is subject to any nec codes other then the 15 foot cord and plug rule being gfi protected.
What I have is a factory assembled 120 volt hot tub with a seven foot cord attached , which is gfi protected with a male end gfi(like hair dryers)sitting on a deck outside a master bedroom. Is it subject to the ten foot rule?
Or is it portable and not subject to nec 680 requirements?
680.42(A)(2) has me a bit confused because it talks about cord not being more than 15 foot but does't talk about receptacle.
Please enlighten me...
I think maintaing the six foot rule for receptacle like an indoor application seems prudent.
Thanks,
H20
