When it comes to borehole installation and maintenance, one thing is clear: not all electricians are created equal. While a general electrician might be perfect for wiring your office or fixing that pesky switch at home, borehole electrical work requires a specialist touch.
Let’s tell you a little story.
We recently worked on a borehole at a business park. After carefully lowering the pump and setting everything up, the borehole refused to produce water. We were puzzled. What could have gone wrong? After troubleshooting, we discovered that the pump had been incorrectly assembled by an electrician hired by the client.
Here’s where things get tricky. Borehole pumps and motors are not your everyday electrical appliances. Misassembly or improper wiring can damage these expensive pieces of equipment. If left unchecked, the pump could have failed completely, leading to costly repairs or even the need for a new pump and motor.
To resolve the issue, our HydroConnect electrician had to reassemble the pump correctly and fix the wiring. The result? A borehole pumping water efficiently and a satisfied customer.
Why a Specialist Matters
Borehole electrical systems are unique. They deal with submerged motors, variable water pressures, and precise calibrations. A specialist borehole electrician understands:
- Correct Pump Assembly: Ensuring every bolt, wire, and connection is in place.
- Cable Selection and Installation: Submersible cables are not the same as standard electrical cables.
- Protection Against Overload: Incorrect wiring can lead to overheating or electrical faults that may damage your pump.
- Long-Term Reliability: A borehole is a long-term investment, and every component needs to work seamlessly to maximize its lifespan.
General electricians might overlook these critical details because they lack specific training and experience.
