Navigating DOE Regulatory Changes Impacting Well Drillers, Pump Packagers, and Dealers

Presented on Tuesday, December 9, 2014

Recent DOE changes to efficiency regulations will impact the way electric motors used for groundwater pumping are designed and tested by motor manufacturers. The new regulations will cause changes in the motors specified and selected by groundwater professionals. This workshop will guide attendees through the maze of rulings, explain efficiency terminology, and provide practical guidelines for motor specification given the changing regulatory landscape.
