In trying to keep this simple I will just say we are doing some commercial plant growing, and need to pump water from relatively shallow cased water wells. Watering needs are daily and I realize generators will be needed as a supplement but looking to drive the majority with solar. Getting grid power to all sites is not practical. The issue with single phase is the super sweet inrush they need. I have been trying to find 3P pumps, but those are very not common.
Basically we need to run a 1HP pump with authority for about 1-2 hrs/day, but that is very likely to extend if well and system can handle it. With all efficiency factors in there, the actual draw is closer to 2000W
The main issue with 1P is I know well that they are very hard starting across the line and usually takes a pretty hard hit.
