How is a UPS fitted to the CPU?

Solution
Very, very easy. Instead of plugging the PC into the wall, you plug it into the outlet on the UPS, and the UPS into the wall. Make sure it's in an outlet that is marked that it is protected, some UPS have bypass outlets for non-essential peripherals like speakers or printers.

One other step that might be optional is connecting the serial cable or USB cable from the UPS to the PC, and loading the drivers and software. THis will allow configuration so that if the power goes out, the PC can start an orderly shutdown on its own in case you are away when it happens.
