Looking for Electrical Engineer

Description

I'm looking for an actual electrical engineer. Someone who is very professional and can think outside of the box. If interested, you absolutely must read this whole ad before contacting. Here's the situation: I have a mushroom farm and in the fruiting room there is a misting system. This system consists of a motor and pump not more than 9-12 amps. This thing has been giving us issues for a very long time. It has been on its own dedicated 20 amp breaker, which the company who sold it said is more than enough. It would trip the breaker consistently about once a week. I have had many electricians out here and no one can really figure out why. We've put voltmeters on to see how the motor performs and it seems fine. We have even replaced the motor a total of two times thinking we just had a bad motor. One electrician finally said it might be tripping because it's connected to a 15amp 24 hour cycle timer so he decided to wire the system to a 20 amp capacitor. Now that worked for a few months and then it started tripping the breaker again. (and yes we have tried changing the breaker SEVERAL times). This week I went in to check the fruiting room (because I have to be paranoid and check it constantly to make sure it hasn't tripped) and the contactor stopped working completely. I now had to bypass the capacitor and wire it up back to a regular outlet. This means it will likely start tripping again. I need help solving this issue. Please contact me only if you have extensive experience and understand electricity like it's a second language. Text is best. Thank you
