Christopher,

I assume that your comments (copied below) do not apply to Grundfos SQ (soft
start) sub pumps. They are two wire pumps with the electronics in the pump
itself. So far I have not seen lightning problems with the SQ pumps.

<< One additional note on submersible well pumps - always insist on the
pump being a "three wire type" pump and not the "two wire" versions.  A
three wire requires a separate starting / control box - but this allows
more options (such as adding a larger start capacitor and using the old
fashion relay type boxes).  The two wire versions have the starting
controls built into the pump itself, making it a little cheaper and
faster to install - but it makes repair of the starting circuit
impossible - and I've also heard that they are more lightning sensitive
as well. >>
