Emergency Lighting
Emergency Lighting From IQ Fire Solutions
The purpose of emergency lighting is to provide enough illumination to enable people to safely evacuate the building in the event of a power outage or other emergency. The areas that require emergency lighting include escape routes, such as corridors, staircases, and exits.
Emergency lighting is a legal requirement in the UK for businesses to ensure the safety of occupants in the event of a power failure:
- Evacuation
Emergency lighting helps people safely evacuate a building by providing clear paths to exits and illuminating escape routes.
- Fire Safety
Emergency lighting helps people identify fire safety equipment, such as fire extinguishers and manual call points.
- High-Risk Areas
Emergency lighting should be provided in high-risk task areas.
- Open Spaces
Emergency lighting is important in open spaces, such as open plan offices, where people may be unfamiliar with the layout and exits.
Emergency Lighting Automatically Comes on When the Main Lighting Fails.
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 is the principal document in the UK that covers the need for emergency lighting. BS EN 50172 / BS 5266-8 specify the minimum provision and testing of emergency lighting for different premises.
