“Could this serve as a back up for a sump pump? (1/3 hp, 115 volts 5 amp)”

• Great Question, this unit is not designed to work with sump pumps. Using a sump pump with this UPS could damage the UPS and would void the warranty. Please see our Sump Pump UPS here: https://www.cyberpowersystems.com/product/ups/battery-backup/a1500sp1/ Thank you for your question.

• It possibly could, but it would not seem to be able to provide battery power for a pump for very long without electrical power.

• I don't think so. It probably isn't rated for damp or wet locations. Also it would exceed the amps. 530W ÷ 120V=4.41 Amps. With such a large load it would only last a few minutes of backup time.
