The following is for distances up to 50 feet, longer runs would have to take voltage drop into consideration. To give an accurate answer the nameplate amperage should be known. The code book states that a single phase 5 HP motor at 230 volts draws 28 amps. You would need a conductor capable of handling 35 amps (or 125% of the nameplate current). This would be a #8 copper conductor with an insulation factor of 90 degrees C which is good for 45 amps. The fusing for this circuit would be 90 amp non-time delay or 50 amp type D time delay fuse. A two pole breaker for 230 volts would be sized at 70 amps.

What size in amperage circuit breaker should be used for a pool pump?
The size of the circuit breaker for a pool pump should be determined by the pump's current draw. The breaker should be sized to accommodate the pump's full load amperage with a 125% safety margin. Most pool pumps typically require a 15 or 20 amp circuit breaker.
What is the breaker size for a goulds century pump 1081?
The breaker size for a Goulds Century pump 1081 would depend on the specific model and voltage requirements. Refer to the owner's manual or the nameplate on the pump motor for the correct breaker size recommended by the manufacturer. It is important to match the breaker size with the electrical requirements to ensure safe operation.
What size circuit breaker to use on well pump?
To determine the correct size circuit breaker for a well pump, you should check the manufacturer's recommendations on the pump's label or in the manual. Typically, most well pumps require a 15-amp or 20-amp circuit breaker for residential use. Make sure the breaker is appropriately sized for the pump's power requirements to avoid damage or safety hazards.
Can you straight wire a sump pump to the breaker box?
Yes. Check local electric codes to see if a disconnect is required at the sump pump. One way is to wire a single 15A circuit to an outlet for sump pump. Then the disconnect is just to unplug the pump for service.
