We've lived on our property for about 4 years now. The well setup is weird and I didn't mess with it the first couple years until a pressure switch failed.
The way they wired the pressure switch to the control box is this:
They ran one leg of the 220V straight to the L1 of the control box, the other leg (L2) they ran one leg of a 2 wire to the pressure switch line 1 and then returned it with load 1 to complete the 220Volts to the control box.
Could this, one leg being constantly hot, be causing continued failure of the capacitor in the well control box?
