It's common. The supplied fuse is about 2 or 2.5 amps, and it's not enough - the system draws more than that when you switch it on. Change it for a 3.15 amp fuse - been working fine for 3 months now, switched on and off every day.
A fuse is a fuse as far as I'm concerned, I've no idea what you mean by a 'glass' fuse, but whatever it is it's not gonna make a difference
