UPS Back up system
I am running 3 MKs3 printers and live in Florida. we have what we call power winks. Not a total shutoff but enough to stop the digital clocks and stop my printers. I run these printers 24/7 and don't mind if the power winks when I am awake. I just hit restart and the printer picks up where it left off. Not so when I am sleeping which is why I would like to ad a UPS system. Would appreciate anyone's help. P.S. Prusa was no help at all.

I have a bunch of these: https://amazon.com/gp/product/B073Q3BSPG . Happy with them. Mind you, I'm not an electrical engineer so I have no idea if they're over/under powered but they appear to do the job for a Mk3S and a Mini each.

I use the one linked below. Works for two MK3S+ when the power "Winks" with no pauses. They keep rolling along.

RE: UPS Back up system
I think the MK3S+ power supply is 240W, so any UPS rated to cover 720W should cover 3 of them. Check the specs for how long the UPS will back up at full load, but any spec'd 750W and up should be fine for 'winks'.

I suggest you buy a "line interactive" UPS that performs well especially when there are power fluctuations; hope this helps
