The Siemens 230 Volt GFCI breaker rated for 60 Amps is an ideal choice for hot tubs. This particular model is designed to resist tripping and offers critical protection against ground faults. It comes with advanced filtrates technology that filters out noise feedback from hot tub components and genuine ground faults, preventing false tripping. The Siemens breaker provides the GFCI protection required by the NEC and serves as a disconnecting means as required by most electrical codes for spas in Canada. Remember, it is important to have a certified and qualified electrician install the hot tub electrical wiring and GFCI breakers.
