Emergency Power Off
Overview
The Emergency Power Off (EPO) option is a feature that will immediately disconnect all connected equipment from utility power. The UPS will shut down immediately and will not switch to battery power.
During an EPO event, the SYSTEM/INVERTER ENABLE switch will move to OFF position.
To power up the connected equipment again, set the SYSTEM/INVERTER ENABLE switch to ON position and power recycle the UPS, i.e., Turn off the utility power input and the BM(s) and turn them on again (the BM can be turned on and off through the BATTERY ON/OFF switch). After the UPS turns on, to continue with normal operation, prior EPO event must be acknowledged on the display screen.
Normally open contacts
-
If the EPO switch or relay contacts are normally open, insert the wires from the switch or contacts at positions 1 and 2 of the EPO terminal block. Use 16-28 AWG wire.
-
Tighten the screws to secure the wires.
If the contacts are closed, the UPS will turn off and the connected equipment will not receive power.

Normally closed contacts
-
If the EPO switch or relay contacts are normally closed, insert the wires from the switch or contacts at positions 1 and 3 of the EPO terminal block. Use 16-28 AWG wire.
-
Insert a wire jumper between positions 1 and 2 of the EPO terminal block.

- Tighten the screws to secure the wires.
If the contacts are open, the UPS will turn off and the connected equipment will not receive power.
NOTE: Position 1 is the power source for the EPO circuit; it provides a few milliamperes of 24 V power.
If the normally closed (NC) EPO configuration is used, the EPO switch or relay should be rated for "dry" circuit applications. The switch or relay contact rating should be for low voltage and low current applications. This normally implies the contacts are gold plated.
The EPO interface is a Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) circuit. Connect the EPO interface only to other SELV circuits. The EPO interface monitors circuits that have no determined voltage potential. SELV circuits are controlled by a switch or relay properly isolated from utility power. To avoid damage to the UPS, do not connect the EPO interface to any circuit other than a SELV circuit.
Use one of the following cable types to connect the UPS to the EPO switch:
- CL2: Class 2 cable for general use.
- CL2P: Plenum cable for use in ducts, plenums, and other spaces used for environmental air.
- CL2R: Riser cable for use in a vertical run in a floor-to-floor shaft.
- CLEX: Limited use cable for use in dwellings and for use in raceways.
- Installation in Canada: Use only CSA certified-type ELC (Extra Low-voltage Control cable).
- Installation in countries other than Canada and USA: Use standard low voltage cable in accordance with national and local regulations.
