This would be more apt:
                 <build>

                        …..

<plugins>

  …

                          <plugin>

<artifactId>maven-checkstyle-plugin</artifactId>

                                           <executions>

                                                             <execution>

                                                             
<phase>install</phase>

                                                              <goals>

                                                              </goals>

                                                             </execution>

                                                   </executions>

                                      <configuration>

                                       
<failOnViolation>true</failOnViolation>   <!—will fail the build if
checkstyle violated -->

                                       
<enableRulesSummary>false</enableRulesSummary> 

                                               
<configLocation>checkstyle-checker1.xml</configLocation> <!—Customized

                                      </configuration>

                          </plugin>

                        </plugins>

                  </build>
