Would there be any compatibility issues?
My home UPS is 1500 va.
Logically, I'm gonna connect my case and monitor to a power strip, which is connected to a power socket. In case of a power outage, power will be directly supplied from my home UPS.
If a power strip would cause issues, what would be another way to connect my case and monitor to the UPS?

Appreciate the help.
 
Make and model UPS?

For the most part the UPS is connected directly to a wall outlet and the supported devices (desktop/case and monitor) are directly connected to the UPS via the power backed up outlets on the UPS.

Most UPS's do not recommend the use of surge protectors or additional power strips.

Check the UPS's User Guide/Manual to be sure.

Or visit the UPS manufacturer's website and read the applicable FAQ's and Forum comments.
