im from UK and every power cable has to have a fuse in UK so suppose
it
depends where your from. if you use fuses it could well be a problem.



If that is true then the fuse needs to be the slow-blow type. The
sudden burst of amps surging through a normal fuse could easily blow it
when the computer is powered on. The slow-blow fuse will prevent it
from opening for a short one-time surge. However, if the fuse in the
power cord blew then the OP would be asking why he has to keep replacing
power cords or the fuses in them. He is saying that he is replacing
PSUs. Even if he replaced the PSU, it wouldn't work until he replaced
the power cord fuse, so he would've still mentioned having to replace
fuses. Doesn't sound like it is a fuse problem.
