    Reset a square d pressure switch
    I had a 2 hour power outage over night and this a.m. The water pressure is very weak when flushing a toilet and running a tap at the same time or running a tap for a long period. The square d pressure switch does not have a reset lever on it and I used an emery board to clean the contacts in the switch and have the same problem. Is there another way to reset this type of switch?

    1. What does the pressure gauge read?
    2. Does the pump shut off, or is it running constantly?

    Thank you for the reply. However, it turned out to be a plugged up in line sand filter which is now cleaned and the system runs perfect. Thanks again.
