RE: UPS OEM Sourcing Letter

For your records and information: As the original equipment manufacturer (OEM), and an ISO9001 certified supplier, Eaton Corporation (formerly: “Eaton Electrical Inc.” and “Powerware”) is the provider of factory-supported, factory trained, factory authorized and factory certified service for your critical UPS (Uninterruptible Power Supply) equipment.

Eaton offers power quality services for its UPS products, as well as for related equipment such as power distribution units (PDUs), batteries, alternative energy devices and Cutler-Hammer switchgear. Eaton also services products from legacy brands, including Powerware, Exide Electronics, Best Power, IPM, Deltec and Lortec.

Eaton is the only authorized provider of service support with the Eaton developed proprietary service software for 3-phase Eaton UPS products. Eaton does not train, certify or support independent third party service providers to deliver or service Eaton UPS and power quality products.

Due to its lack of training on competitor’s platforms Eaton does not service non-Eaton branded power quality equipment. Eaton only works on its own branded equipment or devices it’s been certified to fully support and maintain (e.g., flywheels, static transfer switches).

No other service supplier is authorized to possess Eaton proprietary (copyrighted) software, repair documentation, processes or materials.

Advantages to buying UPS services f rom Eaton include:

• Eaton trains its 240 field technicians to be experts on the products it built 15 years ago and builds today.

• Parts are stocked with the field technicians to maximize our first time fix rate and resolve problems fast.

• When emergencies occur our customer support and f ield service employees will professionally diagnose and resolve your problem.

• Eaton has a 7x24 Customer Reliability Center to answer your calls and technical support, and a 7x24 parts logistics and remote monitoring team to ship parts and respond to critical alarms globally.

• Preventive maintenance allows our techs to thoroughly test, inspect for worn parts, install f irmware updates and calibrate when needed so the UPS meets Eaton’s most current operating specif ication.

• Safety and insurance resources to protect you against the unexpected: every f ield technician has the OSHA, IEEE and NFPA tools, personal protection equipment and training to comply with arc flash and electrical safety so you, your employees and Eaton employees avoid unsafe conditions.

• Eaton is committed to f lawless service execution: We survey every customer for satisfaction, drive continuous improvements and employ Six Sigma and Eaton Quality programs.

Eaton puts all of our replacement parts through a thorough testing regiment to insure quality. Eaton is the only immediate source for original equipment parts. Should you have further questions, or need further assistance of any kind, please do not hesitate to call on me. Thank you for this opportunity to be of service.
