My question is I have a 50 amp GFCI breaker that I will be installing in the breaker box. I have another 50 amp GFCI breaker box that must be installed within 5 feet away from the hot tub. Is it OK to install both 50 amp GFCI breakers for this hot tub I realize I don't need two GFCI's but I have them and wanted to just use them. Is this wiring OK thanks phil

... max limit on the number of GFCI's feeding the same circuit. Ought to be considering the cost...

It is OK to use the additional GFCI. The National Electric Code states only the minimum legal requirements. It will not be detrimental to the operation of the hot tub. However, you are confused by the 5 ft. rule. GFCI does not need to be located within 5 ft. of the hot tub, a readily accessible disconnect is required within 5 ft. of the inside wall of the hot tub and within line of sight except if it is for a single family dwelling. If it is for a single family dwelling, then it is highly recommended to provide it not only for safety reasons, but for maintenance shutoff as well.

Clear as mud now?
