depending on your electrical quality, you have the choice between:
- protection center:
http://www.mgeups.com/products/pdt230/smallups/pcenter/index.htm
- Ellipse ASR:
http://www.mgeups.com/products/pdt230/smallups/easr/ellipse.htm

The UPS selector is there for sizing:

And it's true that MGE supports NUT, and more generally the Opensource /
Free Software (not up to date, but gives an idea):
