Technical Specifications – SoftStart Well Pump™ Soft Starter
Power and Connection IssuesQ1: The unit does not turn on. What should I do?Answer: Verify that the power supply is properly connected. Check that the circuit breaker or fuse is not tripped. Ensure correct wiring according to the installation guide. Confirm voltage compatibility (240V).
Q2: The LED indicators are not lighting up. What could be the issue?Answer: Ensure proper wiring and secure connections. Check for a blown fuse or tripped breaker. Confirm power is reaching the connection terminals.
Startup and Performance IssuesQ3: My well pump still experiences high inrush current when tested with a clamp meter.Answer: Double-check wiring connections. Verify the SoftStart Well Pump™ is securely grounded. Ensure the correct model is used for your system (SSWP is for ½ to 3 ½ HP 240v Systems). You could be getting the benefit of reduced in-rush without the clamp meter being able to detect it. Most clamp meters cannot detect the in-rush current drop at is happens in milliseconds. There are special in-rush clamp meters for this type of testing. If the green light is on and the pump is working, your unit is working fine.
Q4: My generator shuts down when starting my well pump.Answer: Ensure the 240v generator output meets the minimum wattage requirement (typically 3,000 Watts). Check that the generator is properly grounded.
Q5: My system runs fine on electric grid power but struggles with a generator.Answer: Confirm that the generator provides stable voltage without excessive fluctuation. Reduce the load by turning off other appliances. Try re-setting the generator and restarting the system.
Installation and Wiring IssuesQ6: The system does not recognize the SoftStart Well Pump™. What should I do?Answer: Verify that all connections match the wiring diagram exactly. Re-check wiring and refer to installation guides. Ensure the Ground connections are properly installed.
Q7: My well pump worked before installation, but now it will not start.Answer: Check for any loose or disconnected wires. Temporarily remove the SoftStart Well Pump™ and reconnect the system to its original wiring to test.

A group of customers kindly shared how they installed, and use the SoftStart Well Pump™. Watch the videos below.
The SoftStart Well Pump™ is a professional grade softstart. It's designed to work with a variety of pumps. However, regular clamp meters can't register the inrush current reduction. Take a look at how Mike Sokol - the guy who wrote the book on RV electricity - measures the softstart's impact on a well pump's startup.

The SoftStartUp is an electrical soft start device that helps to reduce the amount of power your appliances need when they start up. It’s especially good for things like air conditioners, refrigerators and microwaves that use a lot of power at startup.
If you’ve had issues with your A/C starting up, or other appliances shutting off when the A/C kicks in, then a SoftStartUp could be a big help. It smooths out the power demand so everything runs better together.
You should notice the benefits immediately after installation. When you start an appliance, there should be no more dimming lights or tripped breakers, showing that the SoftStartUp is doing its job right from the get-go.
Look at the LED indicators on your SoftStartUp unit after installation. Two steady green lights indicate a 50-amp service is being used, and a single green light indicates that a 30-amp source is being used. Also, you should notice a smoother start when turning on high-demand appliances, with no flickering lights or tripped breakers, indicating that the inrush current has been effectively managed.
If the LEDs are not lighting up, first check all connections to make sure they’re secure and correct. Also, verify that the campground power supply is functioning properly. If everything seems in order but the unit still isn’t working, contact our customer service for further assistance.
The SoftStartUp does not decrease the power used by your appliances during normal operation, which is actually beneficial. Each appliance has a specific running current necessary for proper function. The SoftStartUp specifically addresses the surge of power needed at startup, reducing its impact to ensure seamless operation of your devices on the same electrical circuit.
SoftStartUp effectively smooths-out power fluctuations, ensuring your RV’s air conditioner starts seamlessly without overloading your generator or campground power source and causing it to shut off.
