Your pump motor is designed to use a certain amount of electricity. During an annual inspection, your water, well and pump technician will check the voltage and ensure that motor resistance is according to specifications, that there aren't any shorts in the wiring and will look for carbon buildup on the pressure switch.

Failure to keep the pump operating correctly will result in an overheating pump that will experience excessive wear and early failure. Proper maintenance will allow you to get the longest possible life from your pump.
