Building a comprehensive alarm and monitoring setup can be complex for facility managers and IT departments. Many facilities already use large security/remote monitoring providers like ADT or Vivint.
EverSafe generators are designed to be compatible with these kinds of third-party security and remote monitoring systems.
How Does a Rechargeable Generator Hook Into an Existing Alarm?
You can add special features such as pre-wired dry contacts with switches to enable integration.
To connect an EverSafe backup generator to your current alarm system, some wiring is needed from your central alarm hub. It’s usually a straightforward task for your IT team.
If you need guidance, EverSafe’s technical support can assist in working through the specifics since each building’s alarm setup tends to differ.
What Alerts Will People Receive Once Integration Is Complete?
Once everything is wired and configured, anyone who already receives alerts from the alarm system will be notified about:
- When utility power goes out or returns restored
- When the backup generator begins to supply power, or when its batteries are depleted and stop providing power
This ensures key stakeholders are aware of what’s happening and can respond appropriately during power events.
What if There’s No Pre-Existing Alarm System?
If your facility does not already have an alarm system, EverSafe also offers a stand-alone, fully integrated Power Outage Alert System as an optional solution.
