Electrical Connections

Employ a licensed electrician or water systems contractor to ensure installation is done properly. All 
wiring must be done in accordance with national and local electrical codes. Follow the cable splicing kit 
instructions.
1. Make sure the power supply corresponds with the electrical rating of the motor.

• For 3-wire, single phase pumps, check electrical rating of the control box.

2. Install a fused disconnect switch or circuit breaker.
3. Ground the pump and the distribution panel with the motor’s green conductor.
4. For two-wire pumps, make wiring con

-

nections.

5. For three-wire, single-phase pumps, 

make wiring connections and install the 
control box.
• Mount in an area protected from 

rain, snow, high temperatures, and 
temperatures below 14 °F (-10 °C).

• Refer to the control box’s wiring dia

-

gram.

• Install a magnetic contac

-

tor if the pressure switch is 
not sufficient to handle the 
motor’s electrical rating. 
The pressure switch is then 
used as a pilot circuit to 
control the contactor.

6. Install a separate lightning 

arrestor close to the wellhead.

7. Test the unit. Brace pump shell 

and apply power momentarily.

8. Ensure pump rotation is clock

-

wise when viewed from pump 
discharge.

9. Place the motor and pump 

labels in the circuit breaker 
box for future reference.

Physical Installation

Refer to

 

“Typical Installation” on page 2

.

1. Confirm that the motor’s lead wires are secure under the pump’s lead guard.
2. Install a pressure tank per manufacturer’s recommendations.
3. Attach a 3/16” diameter to 1/4” diameter steel safety cable to pump.

IMPORTANT:

 If using a different type of cable, confirm the system weight does not exceed the 

limit.

4. Attach schedule 40 galvanized pipes to pump for installations up to 600 ft (180m).

• For deeper settings, use schedule 40 pipe for the bottom 600 feet (180m) and schedule 80 for 

the remainder.
