Hazardous voltage.
Can shock, burn, or
cause death. Disconnect power to motor
before working on pump or motor.
Ground motor before connecting to
power supply.
WIRING
Ground motor before connecting
to electrical power supply. Failure
to ground motor can cause severe or
fatal electrical shock hazard.
Do not ground to a gas supply line.
To avoid dangerous or fatal
electrical shock, turn OFF power to
motor before working on electrical
connections.
Supply voltage must be within
±10% of nameplate voltage.
Incorrect voltage can cause fire or
damage motor and voids warranty. If in
doubt, consult a licensed electrician.
Use wire size specified in Wiring
Chart (Page 4). If possible, connect
pump to a separate branch circuit with
no other appliances on it.
Wire motor according to diagram
in motor junction box cover. If
junction box cover diagram differs from
diagrams above, follow junction box
cover diagram.
1. Install, ground, wire, and maintain
your pump in compliance with the
National Electrical Code (NEC) in the
U.S., or the Canadian Electrical Code
(CEC), as applicable, and with all
local codes and ordinances that
apply. Consult your local building
inspector for code information.
2. Provide a correctly fused disconnect
switch for protection while working
on motor. For switch requirements,
consult your local building inspector
for information about codes.
3. Disconnect power before servicing
motor or pump. If the disconnect
switch is out of sight of pump, lock
it open and tag it to prevent
unexpected power application.
4. Ground the pump permanently
using a wire of the same size as that
specified in wiring chart (Page 4).
Make ground connection to green
grounding terminal in motor
junction box marked GRD. or
.
5. Connect ground wire to a grounded
lead in the service panel or to a
metal underground water pipe or
well casing at least 10 feet long. Do
not connect to plastic pipe or
insulated fittings.
6. Protect current carrying and
grounding conductors from cuts,
grease, heat, oil, and chemicals.
7. Connect current carrying conductors
as shown in Figure 6, above. When
replacing motor, check wiring
diagram in motor junction box
against Figure 6. If the motor wiring
diagram does not match either
diagram in Figure 6, follow the
diagram in the motor junction box.

the cover to the motor junction box) should match one of
the diagrams shown below.
Follow the diagram to connect the motor leads correctly
and to connect the motor to the power supply. If the
wiring diagram in the motor junction box does not match
either diagram shown below, follow the diagram in the
junction box.
