Ok thanks...I think a hand pump at the well would be alot more practical than trying to rigg up solar..im already hooked up to the grid just trying to have backup.12V would be hard to do on a well pump. Let's say startup surge is 30A. 30A x 120V = 3600W per leg. 3600W divided by 12V = 300A needed for a 12V system per leg for a total of 600A.
24V system would be 150A, 48V system would be 75A per leg.
