Well pump circuits tripping breakers and GFCI outlets
Why it happens here
Well pumps draw heavy inrush current on startup, and as the motor ages it draws more. A weak breaker or a GFCI outlet that is near its threshold will trip every time the pump kicks on.
Our approach
We test the pump circuit under load with a Fluke meter, check the pressure switch, and replace the breaker or GFCI outlet with a properly rated unit. We separate pump faults from panel faults so you do not pay for the wrong repair.
