My well keeps breaking the circuit breaker, I have had three pressure switchs put in they last for a few weeks and then they start tripping. Last time if I moved the wires at the pressure switch the pump would turn on. That switch was replaced wire tighten was fine for a two weeks. Now all of sudden it keeps popping the breaker? Model is not correct below

Hi,
The motor for your well pump is going bad and it is pulling too much current on the start up ...this is burning up the pressure switches and is tripping your breaker..
It may be cheaper to replace the whole pump then to just replace the motor...
