I need help sorting out my ups systems. I've had 2 die on the same location. Is it wrong to plug an ups into a surge supressor? The first one lasted a long time, then blew when I plugged in one more component ( it was an apc). I would love to learn how to fix these things. The second one blew right away at the first power outage, about 4 hours after plugin. I'm in St. Thomas. The second one is a CyberPower 1000. It's funny, the AC comes thru, but no battery action.
