damage to the product and surrounding equipment.
Includes thermal protection designed to prevent burnouts due to electrical
overload.
Includes fused over-current protection to safe-guard users from pump failure
modes resulting in high electrical current.
LevelGuard Sump Pump Switches are designed for residential use only.
