i will know some basic electral work and did some pot light, and new switchs before.

i will be installing a jetted bathtub (sorry cant post link newbi)
search Rectangular-Whirlpool-Reinforced-Tempered-Faucet-Freestanding/dp/B00T7W63NA

the motor has a plug at the end. i know it needs a dedicate line and gfci switch. i asked the salesman, he said it need requires a 110v but the manual saids 220v. (manual is not even the same modle0
the problem is i dont know what kind of wire i need to run it from the panel. lets said it needs 220v, can i just use those 3-way wire for power?? or do i use those stove wires??

btw i have a dedicate dishwashing machine that i dont use. can i use that???

The link does not provide any electrical details !
We need to know what the electrical requirements are ?
You say there are only 3 pins on the plug ?
We need to know if a neutral is required.
Then we can advise about where you can connect it ?
can you see any numbers on the plug ?

There is no such thing as 240 vo,t wire. You are confusing voltage with ampacity. Ampacity determines the wire size. How many amps does you tub need?
