It's a server error, you need to contact your web host.

I run NGINX on my servers and the only time I've encountered it is when the backend server (Apache, HHVM, etc.) isn't running or cannot be connected to.

Are you using any kind of DDOS protection or Cloud Flare? These all uses reverse proxies and will generate a 502 error when the web server is down and the reverse proxy (NGINX) can't connect.
