Hey guys, just wanted to pick your brain on this. This will be my first outdoor sauna install.
So 210.8 (F) requires gfci protection on anything 150v to ground and 50a or less so that would include the sauna i am installing (40a required circuit).
The sauna, like all saunas seem to, says not to install gfci protection on it. It doesn't say anything about voiding the warrenty by using a gfci breaker but it says it will most likely trip the gfci.
Has anyone done one on a gfci outside and had success? Or should i tell them that it's not a good idea due to the gfci requirements.
thanks in advance!
