Since all the users have xterm access, there's no problem.
To get back to your original problem that the delayed shutdown of the UPS
did not happen, and that the power outlets were not disconnected.

It would be interesting to know if this script is really executed on a
system shutdown. Try adding line
logger -t upsdrvctl "Calling for delated UPS shutdown"
The difficulty is that the NUT script is called very late when logging is
probably no longer possible. For this reason, I don't use the NUT
nutshutdown script. I prefer a systemd service unit
# nut-delayed-ups-shutdown.service
[Unit]
Description=Initiate delayed UPS shutdown
Before=umount.target
DefaultDependencies=no
[Service]
Type=oneshot
ExecStart=/usr/bin/logger -t upsdrvctl "nut-delayed-ups-shutdown.service
calling upsdrvctl to shut down
UPS unit"
ExecStart=/usr/lib/ups/driver/upsdrvctl shutdown
[Install]
WantedBy=final.target
This service unit needs to be enabled with a command such as
systemctl --system reenable
/etc/systemd/system/nut-delayed-ups-shutdown.service
