What happens here

A 40 amp GFCI breaker is installed within an outdoor spa panel. The wiring from the main service panel, likely in EMT (Electrical Metallic Tubing) conduit, is brought into this spa panel. Inside the panel, the GFCI breaker is securely mounted, and the appropriate circuit wires (hot, neutral, and ground) are connected according to electrical code. The white pigtail neutral wire of the GFCI breaker is connected to the neutral bus bar in the panel.

Goal: Install the 40 amp GFCI breaker into the outdoor spa panel.
