A separate circuit must be lead from the home electrical distribution panel properly

used as well as a ‘GFCI’ receptacle. Consult a licensed electrician for all wiring.
The ground terminal on the three prong plugs should never be removed. They are supplied

Electrical Connection
For pumping systems using more than one pump, each pump needs to be connected to a separate
dedicated circuit protected by a fuse or breaker. This way, the power supply of one pump will not stop
operating if the fuse of one of the pumps burns or if the breaker of one of the pumps trips.
