It is running and running at 900watts constant and hardly building pressure and even caused the 250amp breaker on his single VFX3524 inverter to trip. He is running the pump at 240V off a x240 transformer and thinking he might need to replace the pump and might want to go with a larger 3/4hp pump for better performance and more future capacity. Does anyone have experience running 3/4hp pumps on this setup? The pump is approx. 200\u2019 down in the well.</div><div dir="auto" class=""><br class=""></div>-- <br class=""><div dir="ltr" class="m_-3354202160693055115gmail_signature" data-smartmail="gmail_signature"><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><div style="text-align:left" class=""><span class=""><span class=""><span class=""><span class=""><font face="garamond,serif" class=""><img src="https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B2DkmvpJ0917bnN0ajl2dnRqZnM&export=download" height="49" width="96" class=""></font></span></span></span></span><font face="garamond,serif" class=""><br class=""></font></div></div></div><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><div style="text-align:left" class=""><font face="garamond,serif" class=""><b class=""> Amos Post</b></font></div></div></div><div class=""><span style="font-family:garamond,serif" class=""><font class=""> Integrity Energy</font></span></div><span style="font-family:garamond,serif" class=""><font class=""> O: 802.763.7023</font></span></div><div class=""><span style="font-family:garamond,serif" class=""><font class=""> C: 802.291.2188</font></span></div><div dir="ltr" class=""><div class=""><font face="garamond,serif" class=""><font class=""> <a href="http://ienergyvt.com/" target="_blank" class="">ienergyVT.com</a></font></font></div><div class=""><font face="Garamond" class=""></font> </div><div class=""><a href="http://ienergyvt.com/" target="_blank" class=""></a><a href="https://www.facebook.com/integrityenergyllp?ref=br_tf" target="_blank" class=""><img src="https://docs.google.com/uc?id=0B2DkmvpJ0917Wm9Od1I4YllsbHM&export=download" height="20" width="20" class=""></a></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div></div>
