Hi,
apart from catastrophic shorts or failures, what can cause a mains fuse to fail ?
Heat sometimes causes fuses to fail, especially if you are running them close to their rating for a long time.
In th UK you probably want a 3amp quick blow type fuse. It could be that the cable you were using had a lower rating fuse.
Depending upon how your PSU has been specced it's either 423W input or 423W output. If it's 423W output then it'll be drawing slightly more than that on the input. At 220V you will be pulling close to 2amps, so a 3 amp fuse /should/ suffice.
