Don't quite understand your situation
Why do you need a smart switch for the water pump? Normally the pump switch is left turn on all the time.
It has a buildin pressure switch and the pump doesnt run until you turn on a tap.
Dont tell me every each time you want to use water you will turn on the switch for the pump?
Your pump will say bye bye in no time.....

probably he think he can switch on and off like water heater. I saw a guy put sonoff basic at water pump and use schedule, don't know why maybe want to save some electric bill, I guess

Because his pipes are leaking a bit so it turns on the pump.
That’s why he uses a sonoff to turn it off at night. But the basic is only 10amps. I would rather use the higher 16a just to be sure.
Hows your bathroom lights? Got turn off while taking shower?
I live in a old house, and water pipe is leaking. So to prevent water from leaking we turn on the pump only when we are using the bathroom, turn it off when not in use. The cost to repipe the house cost a lot of money, so by automating the water pump with smart switch, save us a lot of hassle of turning on and off the pump manually.That’s why he uses a sonoff to turn it off at night.
