Lots more Scotch. (Grin) But seriously, that pump shouldn't draw more than
12 or 15 amps. Most of those little cube relays have their amperage rating
stamped on them. I have a bunch of them, most are rated for 40 amps. But,
does the pump run continously or does it start and stop to maintain a
certain pressure. That might tax a relay beyond its rating by inducing a
collapsing magnetic field internally. Just my wild assed guess.
