I have purchased a lot that has an older trailer on it. This was previously a larger lot but was divided between two siblings after their fathers passing. The pump is wired into my breaker but also goes to the other home where they had a pressure tank and switch. It's very confusing. Now that I live here, the other sibling has also moved out and unhooked his switch. Leaving me to have full pressure to my home. When I asked why I had the full pressure from now, and had been having for a few days he just told me to turn breaker on and off when I am not using it. That they had some pipes freeze and bust. Never bothered telling me what he was doing to give me a heads up, so I could make sure my end wouldn't have issues. For the obvious reasons why this is not a good idea or convenient, I need to fix it. It is supposed to be 50/50 on sharing well and the expenses. But at this moment I just want to wire my own switch and connect a tank that I had stored from my old place. I think they may have connected a outlet from that wire that was hooked to the switch. Due to the fact I could hear a shop vac running when his sister was there and they have no power. It had been disconnected and why he ended up moving. I actually flipped off my well breaker and went back outside and no longer heard the shop vac running. This infuriates me, but I know I could be wrong and jumping to accusations. Its hard not to think the worst of someone's reasoning behind how they are doing things. But I think he told me to flip it off and on so I wouldn't cut wire and hook up my own. Making it easier on their end if him or the sister would want to move back and /or have some type of power when they were down there. I have drawn out a pic of how it's set up. I know where and how to hook up my tank and how to hook up a switch. What I want to make sure of is the capping off of wiring and splicing into sub well wiring. I don't know best way to do this. It's very frustrating. I have no issues with going down to the property line and capping their wires off.i know there is probably numerous codes/laws broken. I didn't hook it up, only trying to fix it correctly. So, please don't judge me on how wiring is done.
