The most common reasons for a pool pump circuit breaker to trip are an overloaded motor, underrated pump breaker, bad motor windings or other earthing issue, moisture in the motor or moisture in the wiring.
In this manner, do pool pumps shut off automatically?

Why does my pool pump keep tripping the GFCI?
