So sorry to hear of your damages, that truly SUCKS!
It is a bit late late to help you but a few thoughts none-the-less for others reading this.
#1 Please STOP buying these POS Rule float bilge switches. Years ago they were Mercury filled and very reliable now days they are a switch and they last about as long as a bag of Doritos at a Phish concert.. This is what they can do, ruin boats. If you want a reliable switch the Ultra Safety Systems
Ultra Pump Switch Junior or
Ultra Pump Switch Senior hands down. I have never seen one fail. You pay a premium but you get what you pay for.
#2 That three-way bilge termination could have cost you even more in DC corrosion. In fact you should check all your below water metals for signs of pitting and DC corrosion because you had live DC current in the bilge water. DC corrosion is extremely fast.. All terminations/connections in a bilge must be 100% water proof or the wires taken well above the bilge area and terminated at a point water should never get to.
This is not a safe nor proper termination for a bilge pump. It could also be the cause of the switch failing to work.
#3 I can't see one but that pump should never have a check valve in the discharge line. Check valves have no place on centrifugal Rule style pumps and are a major safety and battery killer.
#4 Every boat over 24 +/- feet with a bilge & cabin should have a dual pump configuration. I have been harping on this for years but folks rarely go for it. Pump #1 for a 30 footer would be a 2000GPH, or preferably more, "oh shit" pump with the bilge switch mounted slightly higher than the primary nuisance water pump. The nuisance water pump should be a diaphragm style pump for dealing with nuisance level water. Diaphragm pumps can use check valves but don't normally need them as they tend to self-check. Premium bilge switches like the UltraPumpSwitch Jr. or Sr. should be used with both pumps.
Thanks for posting this and hopefully it leads to safer bilge pump installations for other forum members.
