Connecting 220V Stenner pump

Flipperman2a2w · Sep 30, 2013

Can I connect a 220V Stenner pump to the load side of a 230V pressure switch or will the higher voltage burn out the Stenner pump? If so, why would they even sell 220V Stenner pumps, since the majority of well pumps are 230V?

My well pump appears to be connected to a 250V/30 Amp double breaker.

As long as the switch can handle the extra current then yes, It will work fine.

220 can go up to 240V or more in some areas.

You can look up the specs if you have a model number.

Good Luck.

220, 230, or 240 volt is basically all the same, just depends on what part of the country you live in as to what they call it.
