400amper

Pumps are not rated in KW. I believe you mean kva, or, most likely in my mind, va. Please clarify what you have for a better answer.

If you mean 132 kva, which to many people would mean the same thing as 132 KW, you are talking about a pump that is portable only because it is hauled around on a trailer. But that kind of pump wouldn't be submersible and would most likely not be electric.

Motors are not often rated in va either, but if what you meant is 132 va, it will run on any common 15 or 20 amp circuit, assuming you connect it to the right voltage.

What size in amperage circuit breaker should be used for a pool pump?

The sizing of the circuit breaker and hence the wire size to feed the pump are all dependant upon the amperage of the pump. This question can not be answered without that information.


What size breaker does it take to run a outdoor well?

Normally AWG #10 wire on a 30 amp breaker but it really depends on the size of the pump. The pump manufacture will specify the size wire and size breaker needed.

What size amp circuit breaker should be used for a well?

Usually 30 Amp 240 volts, but there will be a spec on the well pump.


What size circuit breaker to use on well pump?

Depends entirely on the voltage and current rating of your pump.


What size pump do you recommend for pumping water off the top of the pool cover before you open your pool in the spring?

Any small submersible pump should do the job. just be careful that it doesn't suction onto the pool cover while it is operating.

How much loss from power pole to 200 amp breaker box then off 400 feet then split at a pump house then another 30 feet to a 100 amp breaker box?

For an accurate calculation it will be necessary to know what the size of breaker exists in the pump house and what size conductors are used. Power loss is measured using actual amps required, not size of the circuit involved. But the size of circuit (breaker size) can be used. Voltage must also be known.


When installing a circuit breaker do you size the breaker to correct wire size or the device its controlling?

When installing a circuit breaker, you size the breaker based on the wire size. The breaker should be matched to the ampacity of the wire to ensure proper protection against overloads and short circuits. The device being controlled by the breaker is not a determining factor in sizing the breaker.

How are Branch circuit protected?

Branch circuits are protected by the circuit breaker found in the electrical panel. Each circuit should have its one breaker. The breaker should be rated to protect the insulation of the wire, so you can determine the breaker size based on the circuit conductor size Example #14-2 should be protected by a 15 amp breaker


What size wire do you use to install a 40 amp breaker for a 2amp pool pump?

I think you mean 2 HP pump. I am assuming a 220 To 240 volt supply and that should equate to about a 12 amp current. All my pumps use only a 30 amp breaker and 10 AWG wire.
