New head problems need advice...

Okay so i just got an ampeg svt 3 pro i plug it in power it on it powers up for about 4 seconds then the light dims and i notice that it knocked out power to the whole wall it was connected to. My alarm clock was off in the room connected to mine the alarm clock was off also, so i thought okay blew a fuse. Nothing is reset in the fuse box, i went threw and clicked them all off and back on still no power to that wall.

Now my question i REALLY wanna try this amp but do i try plugging it into another outlet? Could it have just been a fluke that it happened that time or will it knock out another set of outlets if i try it again?

What should i do?!?
