Connection
Procedure
1. Connect
the ground
wire first as shown
in Figure 6.
The grotmd wire must be a solid copper
wire at least
as large as the power
supply wires.
2. There must be a solid metal connection
between
the
pressure
switch
and the motor
for motor
grounding
protection.
If the pressure
switch
is not connected
to the motor, connect
the green ground
screw in the
switch
to the green
ground
screw
under
the motor
end cover. Use a solid copper
wire at least as large
as the power
supply wires.
3. Connect
the ground
wire to a grounded
lead in a ser-
vice panel, to a metal underground
water
pipe, to a
metal well casing at least ten feet (3M) long, or to a
ground
electrode
provided
by the power
company
or the hydro authority.
4. Connect
the power
supply
wires
to the pressure
switch
as shown
in Figure 6.
5. Reinstall
the pressure
switch
cover.
