Hi,
1. You fuse is blown down may be due to get deep discharged with very high current.
Please help follow this instruction:
0. Open the door , you will see the push button red/ green. in the large metal steel.
1. Turn off the UPS, turn off the Battery Breaker Box, keep the fuse still on.
(if you battery is internal type, please get out the battery DC fuse.)
2. Check again the DC capacitor if there are any fault.
3. Turn on CB supply the power to input UPS.
4. You will see the messege "’Stop charge DC capacitor- YES’’
press the Battery icon in the keypad and see how much the voltage charge . It' will increase slow up to 435V DC.
press "#" to confirm storp charge the DC. (if the DC low, you must press "C", "#" to start again"
5. insert fuse /or turn on the MCCB.

You should call into your local APC service office for support. Silcon UPS are too complex to troubleshoot on a web forum.
