I'm doing one now and have a Hubble EPO button talking to a Siemens shunt trip main, NO with 120V trip. If you need model numbers I can supply that tomorrow.
At risk of hijacking this thread, why does the IT guy need to EPO a server room???

There are a few folks, but essentially panel builders will build whatever you design.
For example http://easter-owens.com/EPO PANEL.pdf
I also agree that they are not needed in most cases, but if the client wants them, I like to design my own diagram for a builder to make, so I have the stuff I like.

As an IT person - if you feel then need to install an EPO please make sure it is of the shunt trip variety and not the series contactor design.
Series contactor is absolutely what you need in industrial, where the EPO must work and thus is built fail safe, but in the world of IT, failed and/or badly designed EPOs causing outages (often with massive costs assosiated) are far more common than real EPO events.
