Still not finished.

Led light colors are as following :

Blue - ( always on )constant power , system is on
Green - when on, it means pump is activated and topping off
Red - when on it means emergency back up float activated to prevent flooding, pump is cut off
Orange - when on it means the float inside bucket has been triggered for low water and cuts off to protect pump. ( I used orange because the Home Depot bucket is orange ) lol

Still cleaning up wiring and making permanent connections.

What do you guys think?

Everything is running on 12vdc pump and transformer. I’m going to install an inline mini fuse tomorrow as well.
