Hi Mark...the switch is used to actuate the demand regulator 
it's attached too.   It's a micro switch and I guess anything is possible but I 
think unlikely

I have seen this twice in the last 50 years in communications buildings.  The 
above link explains the theory but we never identified the cause.  Our 
assumption was a faulty charger but they were dead when we found the problem 
sometime after the event.  What is the switch on the generator on the right 
side of the picture?  Is it possible it created a spark?
