I Too Have a Spa Panel Question

bstway said:

First, I must apologize for resurrecting this topic. I've looked at most of the spa panel threads and all of the ones that seem to pertain to my needs no longer have photos. My dedicated dryer circuit terminates with a non-grounded 10-30R receptacle (H-H-W). Does anyone (P-J?) know how this depiction (snagged from a very helpful post on this forum) would change for my situation? Additionally, any clarity on how the spa panel's 50A GFCI breaker is compatible with the 30A circuit would be helpful, as well.

Thanks. I was under the impression that it would meet code since it’s a dedicated circuit and the main box commingles earth grounds and neutrals, as well.

Thanks. I assume 10/4 SOOW would be appropriate for the output since the circuit is still only 30A regardless of the 50A breaker? This is all pretty annoying since I have room in my main box for a clean 4 wire run. The problem there is it's in my garage with no water/drainage. My utility room is ideal except for this outdated wiring I'm having to work around. Running a new line to that location isn't a good option either (diagonal locations in the house and all finished areas).
