A humming pump with a full pit points at a blocked outlet, a jammed impeller or a check valve that won't open. Running it harder won't clear any of those. Cutting power to it protects the motor while you get eyes on the line.

Not into the sanitary sewer. That connection is banned in most places because it loads the treatment plant during exactly the storms it can least handle. The outlet needs enough run and fall to get water off the lot, which often means more pipe than the original installer used.

Without power the pit fills at whatever rate the footing tile feeds it, and in a wet spring that can be fast. Backups range from a battery unit to a second pump on a separate circuit. Which one makes sense depends on how much water the pit actually sees.

It usually means the motor is failing or the outlet has taken on damp, neither of which fixes itself. The trip is doing its job. Treat the pit as unprotected until the cause is found rather than counting on the next reset holding.
