    I agree, nice diagram. One question, what size is the circuit breaker? To require 10 gauge wire the pump would have to draw in the neighborhood of 50 amps and if that is the case that would be one hot pump.

    Typically a 30 amp circuit breaker - could use a smaller wire, but I tend to "upsize."
