    Grounding and bonding swimming pool pump

    Need some help please. Got a brain teaser for my first post. My pool pump motor cratered over 4th of July. It was working fine and started to sound like it had gravel in it. I turned it off at the timer to backwash and the breaker tripped. She was locked up. Since it was 8 years old I took it to...

At the moment the pump is switched...

This makes sense, because if I go...
