GFCI question

[Chas]

Be sure to get a wiring diagram from your dealer: there should be one with the GFI, in the owner's manual, or you should be able to download one from the 'Net.

Give THAT to whoever you have coming to bid on the job, so they know exactly what you need to have done.

Wow...
the only way to power off the tub is to go in my basement and flick the breaker.


I will get another electricien and have him fix up everything.

I cant beleive that guy did such a half ass job.

That basement shutoff violates NEC.  No GFCI breaker violates NEC.  
Not getting a permit and inspection, if such is required in your area, is also bad.  
Who know what else he botched.  Hopefully he ran the correct wire type and gauge.  

I know you have family/friend connections with this person, but he really needs to be called on the carpet for this one.  

Good luck going forward.
