The sub panel is a must . We see more than half the 240v GFCI hook ups are done wrong -- and this is by licensed electricians. The number one problem we see is they miss wire the Neutral wire--it cannot be a ground if a GFCI is used.
If a GFCI breaker is used in the sub - the white Neutral wire is a LOAD NEUTRAL -- it must be hooked to the breaker-- not the buss bar or wire nut to another wire of any sort.


I'm using a GFCI center as my disconnect. Are you saying that the white wire from the tub needs to be wire nutted to the white wire from the GFCI but NOT to the buss block?

So the only thing going to the buss block is the bare coppers from the house and the tub, and the white wire from the tub terminates at the GFCI?

Sorry just a little confused on that 8)
