Just get the 3/4 HP impeller. The 1 HP is too much for the motor, and overheating it causing it to trip. If it still trips then get the 3/4 HP wet end.

Re: Do I need to replace wet end with motor?
The new 3/4 hp is not tripping. The old 1.5hp was tripping the breaker on "hi spd only" after a brown out a few weeks ago. The new 3/4 seems fine even on hi spd but I have been running it on low because I wanted to see if I should change the impeller/wetend before I burn this one out.
