Eaton 5PXG2 3000VA Short Circuit Fault

Hi,

I have been using my UPS (at home) now for about 3 weeks or longer. No issues.

Suddenly today at 3 AM I lost power instantly, UPS started beeping, flashing a red LED with the triangle symbol and it said "Short circuit fault". 

Now, I don't really know what this error means exactly or why it happened. The UPS is on a dedicated 15 amp socket which nothing else runs on and the typical load (and the load at the time) was just under 30%. There was no change to the connected devices recently.

After I used the menu to acknowledge the error, the UPS shut itself off.

Is it safe to turn back on? Or could that lead to a fire / electrical hazard? Is the UPS dead?

Thanks in advance
