Permits & your utility in San Jose
In San Jose, electric service is Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), and building permits are issued by City of San Jose. We pull the permit on every hot tub & spa wiring, coordinate the service and meter to PG&E's Electric & Gas Service Requirements (Greenbook, TD-7001M), and pass inspection, so it's safe, legal, and protects your home's value.
San Jose note: San Jose Clean Energy is CCA (generation only) — the wires/meter/Greenbook are still PG&E.

hot tub & spa wiring in San Jose: FAQ
What does a hot tub need electrically in San Jose?+
Most hot tubs need a dedicated 240V GFCI-protected circuit, a disconnect within sight but at least 5 ft from the water (NEC 680.12), and equipotential bonding so everything around the water sits at the same potential. We size it, install it, and permit it in Santa Clara County.
Why is bonding such a big deal near water?+
Because water plus electricity is where shocks turn deadly. Equipotential bonding ties the pump, rails, and reinforcing together so there's no voltage difference to shock you. It's required by NEC 680 — and it's exactly the kind of code step a licensed C-10 doesn't skip.
