Possible Causes

Engaged emergency stop button on generator enclosure, Open contact in remote E‑stop circuit, Broken wire in safety loop, Faulty E‑stop switch

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Confirm that it is safe to allow the generator to run before resetting any emergency stop devices.

  • Check local E‑stop: Locate the red emergency stop button on the Genergy enclosure. If it is pressed in, twist or pull (depending on design) to reset.
  • Inspect remote E‑stop stations: If your system has remote emergency stop buttons, verify none are engaged. Reset as required.
  • Test continuity of E‑stop loop: With power off, use a multimeter to check continuity across the E‑stop circuit terminals at the controller. An open circuit indicates a wiring break or failed switch.
  • Repair wiring: Trace the E‑stop cable for damage, especially at entry points and junction boxes. Repair or replace damaged sections.
  • Replace faulty switch: If a switch does not close when reset, replace it with a Genergy‑approved emergency stop switch.
