When I run too much water in the house the cutoff switch shuts down till I manually flip the lever to get it back running again... we cannot run more than 2 faucets at a time.. any ideas?the switch is roughly 2 months old... turns on around 30 shuts off around 50.. thanks

Square D boxes, (see image) do not have a lever to flip. What happens when you run more then two faucets at a time? Is what you're attempting to tell me is that the cut in contacts do not energize when you draw the pressure down and that there's no pressure left after the system drains down? I'm sorry but could you rephase and clarify your question. Regards, Tom
No problem... when the pressure gets down around 30psi. And just about to pressurize the tank the safety switch cuts out and the well pump shuts off... but the pressure tank is still holding pressure... it doesn't leak... my switch looks almost like that but is a combo pressure switch and low pressure cut off switch... this only happens when it seems there is too much demand for water... I am going to pull the pump this week being its very shallow and see what the make and model is... maybe it's a very low hp pump
