Emergency Lighting
Emergency Lighting keeps escape routes and exit signs lit when main power fails during a fire or other emergency. The category includes illuminated emergency exit signs, self-contained emergency luminaires with internal batteries, central battery systems, and pathway and corridor lighting. Backup duration after mains failure follows the adopted code (e.g. 90 minutes under NFPA 101, or 1-3 hours under EN 1838/EN 50172).

About this category
Emergency lighting types differ in backup power source and operating mode. Emergency exit signs carry the ISO 7010 running-figure pictogram and are lit continuously (maintained) or only on mains failure (non-maintained); photoluminescent variants require no power. Self-contained emergency luminaires carry an internal battery (NiCd or NiMH) charged from the mains and activate the moment power is lost — suited to small and medium facilities. Central battery systems serve larger buildings from a single battery bank or a few banks in a dedicated room, reducing maintenance cost by consolidating test points. Pathway and corridor luminaires provide a baseline level of light (typically 1 lux) along escape routes to allow safe movement. Luminaires differ in illuminance (1-50 lux), backup duration, and the option of periodic automatic self-testing through a smart system. Monthly short-duration testing (30 seconds) and annual full testing for the system's rated duration (e.g. 90 minutes under NFPA 101 or 1-3 hours under EN 50172) are mandatory. Specifications follow NFPA 101, EN 1838, and EN 50172.
