1.
Fit the riser pipe to the pump. Grip the pump by the outlet chamber. Take care not to damage the cables.
a. If you use plastic pipes, use a compression coupling between the pump and the first pipe section.
Plastic pipes expand when they are loaded. Consider this fact in relation to the installation depth.
3.2.4 Fastening the drop cable to the riser pipe
1.
Fit cable clips on the riser pipe for every 3 m.
