Hello All

Thought I would quickly share my pumping station build. This is to run a 700W inverter controlled pump to run my house from a tank. The issues I have were twofold. Firstly it was a long way to pull a cable to run the pump, and secondly when we lose power, which happens a bit, we also lose our source of water. This seemed a bit dumb to me.

This was also an opportunity to put some stuff together and learn how it all works before commencing a 48V system build later in the year.

Everything is now all closed up and working perfectly. VRM shot below.

The pump is not running at the moment. I have been using the 230V side to power some rack servers while I reconfigure them as NAS and virtualization machines.

Thank you for reading.
