Using a surge protector or ups will not do anything at all to stop your fuse blowing.
Is it an old building with old wiring?

Then that is why you are limited to what you can load your system up to, years ago cables were smaller and we all used less appliances. If you overide any protection devices you stand the chance of melting the supply cables and starting a fire.
Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

| You can plug into a different circuit to run more than one at a time... say in a different room. Good luck! |
