To avoid over-heating wire and excessive voltage drop at motor, be sure
wire size is at least as large as size listed in Table 3 for your horsepower
pump and length of wire run.
NOTICE: See Installation Wiring Diagrams for typical wiring hook-ups
and submersible motor control identification.
NOTE:
1. Maximum wire lengths shown maintain motor voltage at 95% of
service entrance voltage, running at maximum nameplate
amperes. If service entrance voltage will be at least motor name-
plate voltage under normal load conditions, 50% additional length
is permissable for all sizes.
2. Sizes given are for copper wire. For aluminum wire go two sizes
larger (i.e., if table lists #12 (3mm
aluminum wire.)
INSTALLATION WIRING INSTRUCTIONS
Single Phase, 3 Wire
Hazardous voltage. Can shock, burn, or kill.
Ground submersible motor control, all metal plumbing, and motor frame
with copper wire in compliance with Canadian Electrical Code or
National Electrical Code and local codes. Use ground wire at least as
large as the wires supplying power to motor.
At well head, connect ground wire to grounding terminal that meets
Canadian Electrical Code or National Electrical Code requirements that
apply. For more information, contact local code officials.
Permanently close all unused openings in this and other equipment.
Disconnect power before working on or around submersible motor con-
trol, pipes, cable, pump, or motor.
NOTICE: Install submersible motor control vertically on wall with top side up.
3-Wire pumps have three power supply wires (Red/Black/Yellow) and
one ground wire (Green).
3 wire pumps will not operate without submersible motor control;
attempting to do so will burn out motor.
Installations must include circuit and component protection in compli-
ance with U.S. National Electrical Code or Canadian Electrical Code,
Part 1.
If main overload trips, look for:
1. Shorted Capacitor
2. Voltage Problems
3. Overload or locked pump.
NOTICE: Use only submersible motor control specified for your
pump. Make sure motor and submersible motor control match
(Table 4). FAILURE TO DO SO WILL VOID WARRANTY.
