3-wire well pump diagrams are more complicated and require a better understanding of electrical work. 1 (Above): 2 Wire Well Pump Wiring Diagram. could be totally making it up in my head and I have no reference of where I saw it but I definitely remember it. Black wires go to black wires, and the green wire (the ground) goes to the ground wire. In addition the pump has the option of running 115v or 230v and I read somewhere that running it at 230v would require a smaller wire gauge. The well pump wiring for the exterior or deep well pump comes as a special 4 wire direct burial and is usually 12 gauge awg. In some cases, a single pump can have up. For this reason, pump wires must be at least 12 gauge. I clocked it at around 150ft and from what I've read it needs to be 10 gauge wire due to the distance but obviously trying to keep this as cheap as I can and 10 gauge is basically twice the price of 12 from what I've seen. Three pumps of a pump station (30, 10, and 1 ½ horsepower) are connected to the power source of 460-volts, 3-phase. The wire size is 14 gauge awg or larger and is usually protected by a 15 or 20 amp circuit. Submersible pumps require a minimum of 2.5 kilowatts of power. Kit with 1 Brass Union tank tee to fit most pressure tanks with diameters up to 16. What I'm trying to figure out is what gauge wire I need to be running due to the distance it is from the breaker. 150 ft 12/2 w/G Submersible Well Pump Wire Cable. Its only a 1/2 hp jet pump so it only needs a 20 amp breaker I'm thinking. However, if a problem does occur, they are much more expensive to repair or replace. So I'm rewiring a second well pump on my property that got disconnected due to storm damage and is now having to get reconnected to a different panel.
