It's a 15 amp breaker and pretty far from the panel. I'll admit it's not done correctly.
It's a heavy guage extension cord run into an outlet in the garage. We're in the process in getting a new subpanel put into the garage so the pool is on it's own circuit much closer than all the way in the house.
But it's been working like this for a long time and all of the sudden now it doesn't work?
What I've done since posting....
I've had the motor checked now and the windings were recoated and baked, bearings replaced and resealed and I've replaced the 15 amp breaker with a new one and we're still tripping the breaker..
Any thoughts?
thanks
