I recently started having a problem with my sand well tripping the circuit breaker. I replaced it with a dual 30 (originally it was a dual 20). The circuit breaker still is being tripped. I pulled the pump and motor from the well and replaced the pump thinking that was the problem. I put the motor and pump back in the well but did not hook it back to the irrigation system but let it flow freely. It did fine and did not thru the breaker, however when I hooked it back to the irrigation system it started throwing the breaker again. I pulled the pump and motor again and this time replaced the motor this time. Put it back in the well. It is still tripping the breaker. What should I try next? What would cause the breaker to trip if it is not the motor or the pump?
