I'm puzzled. How are you planning to get power to the pump (110v or 220v)
from the house to the well. I'm assuming you are dealing with a
submersible pump in the well. Maybe a little more info would help.

Power goes out on #4 underground direct from the meter. This is just the
signal from the pressure switch to the motor contactor

OK, I get it now. Your idea would work, but it might be easier and simpler
to move the pressure switch from the house to the well. The pressure switch
really doesn't care where in the system that it's located, as long as it can
sense the pressure.
In the future, when running electricity underground, ALWAYS use conduit
(grey PVC), then pull THWN wire through it. If you ever have a problem with
the wire, it's a simple matter to replace it.
