1) What is the standard practice with regard to level control. Are most
pond setup to maintain a fixed level of water to counter act leakage and
evaporation?


Mine isn't. I would guess that most smaller ponds are not. When mine
gets low I fill it with a hose.
2) How are your pumps wired? Do the plug into a standard outlet or are
they wired directly into a circuit.


I had a circuit run to the pond area, with a standard outlet on the
end of it so I can plug things into the circuit.

3) Are the pumps on circuit breakers, or fault detection devices.


The circuit has a breaker with ground fault protection built in.

and finally
4) Are pumps 120 volt or 220 volts

Mine is 120.
