    I have a Jet Stream 5000, the spec plate only says 240VDC, anyone know the amps?
    I have purchased a GFCI 60 amp disconnect but want to make sure it is not to big for my need. The plate only describes the voltage. I was going to run a 50 amp but have not been able to find any information regarding the specs for this hot tub. I can send a pic of the pack if it helps

    A couple of observations;

    First is the title of your post states "240V DC"

    Is that a typo? Should be AC.

    Second, the spec sheet Ballenger found for you states there is a built in GFCI, so why the need for a GFI circuit breaker?
