noob alert.
Picture shows three wires that come from conduit into my timer.
Old pump was 115v and new is 230v. I made a (possibly bad) assumption that the capped wires (#2 and 3) were for a 30amp 240v breaker but.... the power to those wires was shut off with the same 20a 120v breaker that is feeding line #1. Checked with noncontact voltage tester. Shutting off the dual pole breakers did nothing.
Also when checking with multimeter to either #2 or 3 and the neutral on timer, only reads 22...
