Just got back too this.. I'm not saying in all applications you can run 12ga 500' it depends on amp load.. 220 is no cheaper than 110 to operate.. 220 will have less draw on startup (lights won't dim or flicker) you might not be able to run 12ga 500' depending on amp draw from your pump..

PS- Oklahoma must have different code than the rest of the unites states. Because 10ga minimum for 220 is BS. I wiredmy house with my certified electrician cousin and certified electrician coworker and and the only 10 ga int house in running to my mig welder.. 12ga is fine and passes code..

I believe in catch and release. I catch then release to the grease..
