Depending on the size of the pump, the starting surge might blow 3A fuse. This would be even more of a concern if the pump is on a timer. The repeated cycling might cause the fuse to blow over time, even if the surge does not exceed the fuse rating. Again, depending on the pump capacity, you will probably be better off with a 5A-7A fuse for the pump. Best practice is to fuse each load individually with a fuse rated for the component.
