Question:   Define: AC Fault
Answer:   An extreme surge causing damage to the protection circuitry has occurred; while voltage may be present at the outlets, there is no protection.
 
Question:   Define: AC Mains Wiring
Answer:   There is reverse wiring of the AC mains power source (i.e. hot & nuetral are reversed)
 
Question:   Define: Open Breaker
Answer:   Power draw through the unit has exceeded the 15A or 20A capacity of the unit; the circuit breaker on the unit itself has tripped and simply needs reset.
 
Question:   Define: Abnormal Voltage
Answer:   This L.E.D. has dual function: it will blink if voltage in is between 101-107V (low) and between 128-132V (high); it will be steady on if below 101V or above 132V
 
Question:   What do the bi-color (Red & Green) LEDs mean on the ECS6RM and keyswitch?
Answer:   Red Solid LED means it is wired to AC Mains and there is power present on the circuit.
Red Flashing LED means there is a fault, high or low voltage on the circuit.
Green Solid LED means the circuit is "on" live voltage to outlets
No LEDs means no power to circuit and not turned on
 
Question:   How many ECS6RMs can be linked together?
Answer:   Up to three units (1 master, 2 slaves)
 
Question:   Where are the knockouts on the raceway system? And how many? And what sizes?
Answer:   There are 5 total knock out holes: 1 at either end and 3 along the back. Knockouts are 3/4" or 1". You can either daisey chain the power from module to module, or run individual power runs to each module.
 
Question:   What is New Generation Metal Oxide Varistor Technology – NGMOV?
Answer:   This technology has been used for many years for AC spike & surge protection in large scale electrical substations, industrial machinery, computer systems and medical equipment. Over the last decade, the development of M.O.V.s has greatly improved.
 
Question:   What is Dual Clamping Suppression?
Answer:   If an AC spike penetrates the first stage of protection, a secondary protection stage dedicated to the circuit's output is there to protect your valuable equipment.
 
Question:   What is Extreme Voltage Shutdown (EVS)?
Answer:   If the AC incoming voltage surges above 132V or drops below 101V, the monitoring circuitry will trigger a shutdown.
 
Question:   What type of wire is needed to link the ETA-ECS6RM to ETA-ECM20, ETA-ECM20M, ETA-15SH & ETA-20SH electrical control modules?
Answer:   Any 5 conductor, minimum of 22 gauge wire will work. Suggested is CAT-5 due to its commonality.
 
Question:   How does the ECS-KSW6 connect to the ETA-ECM6RM?
Answer:   Connection is via a common Ethernet cable with an RJ45 connector at up to 1000 feet away. Note: This is not an IP Ethernet port and is only used for connectivity between ETA-ECS6RM and the ECS-KSW6 units. Wiring of this connector is the same as an Ethernet cable.
 
Question:   Why does the plug on the ETA-20SH look different?
Answer:   It is simply the standard 20A plug required for safety certification. The ETA-20SH comes with a 9' (3m) 12-gauge Power Cord. The plug type is NEMA 5-20P and requires a 20A dedicated outlet.
