    Can 6/3 plus ground be used to wire hot tub indoors
    I am wiring in a Hot Tub.
    I sent my brother to the electrical supply store and told him I need 100' of 6/4 wire.
    He came home with 6/3 plus ground NM wire.
    The ground doesn't need to be shielded wire to feed a GFI as long as it is indoors does it?

    What you have, #6-3 with ground, will be fine.
