This answer should be easy to find, but to no avail, as many answers come back, "in most applications"... So I'm asking it directly, does the control box need to be after the switch?
My existing 3 wire setup is a currently double pole breaker, a control box wired immediately after the breaker, and 3 wires going to well and not other controls... You turn on the breaker, the pump discharges into an irrigation ditch, turn off the breaker to stop... there are no isolation valves, no switches, no pressure tank, (without valves, everything is open, there are no current means to blow up the lines).
But, I'm adding a pressure tank and switch into the system, in-between the existing control and well, so that I can keep pressure on the lines. Do I have to relocate the control box to after the switch?
