Timers
They must be manually set. The unit should
pump until the pump looses about 10% fillage.
Then they should be shut in for 10 minutes or so.
Also they must be re-checked as well conditions
change as nothing changes automatically.
Demand charges can be the biggest of a 15
minute period. If the total time is 15 min or less,
then off time makes the total less for the 15 min
period. In that case you would be charged, for
example $.05/kw-hr for consumption, instead of
$.08/kw-hr demand charge. This could work for18
a 15 min cycle percentage timer.
