It's a touch overkill and perhaps a little OT too, but it does seem the
kind of thing that a few people here will know about.

I managed to obtain an old(ish) APC 5000 Smart UPS (5000VA/3750W)

3.7KW - christ how do you lift it, it weighs nearly 100KG!
and yes, you could easily run most ovens off it for a while!!

If you only want to protect the boiler, phone, router and AP, then it would
be far far far cheaper to just buy a new UPS!

What you have, is a £1700 whopper! designed to protect a small
village...well maybe not, but it is FAR in excess of what you need!
