Yes, it has absolutely nothing to do with the amp drawing too much power. You never use it at maximum anyway. Electrical items like dimmers, refrigerators etc. might send out pulses on your electricity net, and some audio equipment is sensitive to that, and some are not. An off-line UPS will created separation from earth, but have other disadvantages, like sending even more noise out on the net. Besides they beeing expensive, you need to replace the batteries every 4-5 years maybe, and they are expensive also. Your solution is a mains filter for your amp, this is very effective, I had it myself : http://www.lcaudio.com/index.php?page=314 It suppress the spikes that cause your amp to "mute" itself. But, if you have any dimmers around, consider not using them, they create a lot of noise, and some amp are very sensitive to this also. My Bryston is not however.
