Default Power for Well Pump

"John F. F." wrote in :

Hi all,
For those of us who are on private wells dependent upon electric I'm
wondering what, if any, alternate methods and techniques anyone has
without using a generator to operate their well pump.


What alternatives do you suppose there might be? You have an electric pump at the bottom of
your well. It runs on 240VAC. If you don't have power from the power company, how are you
going to get power to the pump, without either a generator, or a really really long extension
cord?
