    Hi,
    I have a submersible pump + switch
    Brio switch SK13 Omnigena
    Submersible pump 3.5 SC 5/17 230 V Omnigena

    I connect the whole thing to the GoSund SP111
    Despite connecting to a wifi network snapping and lighting up in red which would confirm that the GoSund is working properly, the pump does not turn on.
    Anybody has an idea what the problem is?

    It is supposed to be an additional safety feature so that the pump only starts at the time when the irrigation is supposed to start the waterers, such an additional solution as an additional safety feature, because the previous set of pump + breaker after the breaker failure, the pump ran 30 days 24 hours consuming 1100kwh ;(

    And is it a coincidence that on this SK13 you have to press Reset after each plug-in? 🤔

    This could be because when I turn it on via GoSund, 1 time it works, when I turn it off, it fails to start 2-3-4 times.
    Is there any way to remedy this?

    Hmm... you say it works the first time. Maybe you are trying to switch on/off too often. Try waiting a while before switching on again.... 10 minutes, half an hour - I don't know. 🤔

    I have set the GoSund to switch on 6:00 off 8:00 for 7 days of the week it has not started even once.

    If I unplug the GoSund and switch it on again it only works once, when I switch it off it no longer switches on either manually or at 6:00

    I have several GoSunds at home and only with this one there is a problem, I have done various combinations I have plugged in other GoSund sockets to eliminate that it is defective on the 3rd pump with the switch behaves exactly the same.

    Some whimsy this SK13 is.
    I understand that when GoSund disconnects the power supply the pump is running at that time?
    I have another idea - as if you could try, before disconnecting the GoSund power, to close the valve on the discharge so that the SK13, when the pressure is reached, turns off the pump.

    I understand that when the GoSund disconnects power, the pump is still running?
    >The GoSund actually disconnects power from ST13, and ST13 only turns on the pump when:
    1) I turn on the faucet at the plot,
    2) I run the RAINBIRD controller to turn on the waterers.

    >I have another idea - try closing the valve on the discharge before turning off the GoSund power so that the SK13 increases the pressure and turns off the pump.
    I ran various tests and generally set the RAINBIRDA controller to turn on the waterers at 6:00 and turn off at 8:00.
    And the GoSund is supposed to turn on the power to the SK13 at 5:55 and turn off at 8:05. This combination does not work.

    Now I ran tests. I turned on the GoSund, turned on the faucet and water was flowing. I turned off the faucet, turned off GoSund, restarted it and it worked a few times and then stopped.

    This I know, this SK13 also controls the current drawn by the pump, that's why I meant to switch off the power when SK13 switches off the pump but you wrote, that this doesn't work either :(

    The only idea is to remove this SK and insert the good old LCA2 ;) .

    I have the problem that sk 13 sometimes works for a day or two but the next day it doesn't switch on, I have to reset it or disconnect it from the mains and so on and so forth, I don't know, I'll probably buy another sk 13.

Topic summary

The discussion revolves around the compatibility issues between the Brio switch SK13 and the submersible pump 3.5 SC 5/17 when connected to the GoSund SP111 smart plug. Users report that the pump operates only once after being powered on by the GoSund, failing to restart thereafter unless the GoSund is unplugged and reconnected. Suggestions include waiting longer between power cycles, closing the discharge valve before disconnecting power, and considering alternative switches like the LCA2. The SK13's requirement for a reset after each plug-in and its control over the pump's current draw are also highlighted as potential factors in the malfunction.
