I have a septic motor running amps 12 and a LRA of 40.
Septic guy has botched this septic up (don't get me started) Now he has a 240 volt motor(this one mentioned) I have it wired 120volt now and can change it to 240 easy enough without having to open up tank lid(float controls- power in to one float-which feeds through second float and spliced to motor-neutral tied to motor)so you see easy to convert 120 at panel to 240 and run separate power for low voltage alarm.
My question is "at 12 amps would 20 amp circuit be enough to feed motor and start up current"?
