QUESTION
Power and submersible pump requirements for borewell

Namaste,

Our borewell report indicates the following : - 450 feet depth - 180 feet water - 2.75" yield, Currently, there is no tank, but let us assume that there will be a overhead tank around 50 feet higher.

Questions :

- What would be the submersible pump specification needed?

- What power is needed to support the pump (e.g. if diesel generator)?

Initially the water requirement would be sporadic (i.e. there is no family living or major irrigation needed). It will be used maybe weekly once or twice for basic purposes. In future it will be needed for irrigation only in summer months and that too nominally (i.e. not commercial).

Thanks
