\"FlashlightsFlashlights and emergency lighting<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Emergency lighting legislation<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/h3>\n

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 (RRFSO), which came into force in October 2006,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It is imposed on the responsible person<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Which controls non-domestic buildings and common areas in a House on Multiple Places (HMO) The safety of everyone in the building whether they work, visit or live there.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This duty of care includes providing emergency lighting. Section 14(2)(h) of the RRFSO states:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cEmergency roads and exits that require lighting must be provided with emergency lighting of sufficient intensity in the event that normal lighting is disrupted.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Emergency lighting is part of providing fire safety for a building and cannot be ignored:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As noted by the Industrial Committee for Emergency Lighting (ICEL)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

, is the UK’s premier authority on emergency lighting and provides third party accreditation<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For components and products for emergency lighting fixtures sponsored by the Lighting Industry Association (LIA):<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cThe legal requirement is that non-domestic premises must be secure at all times, even in the event of a mains power outage.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, almost all of these buildings must be equipped with emergency lighting.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

responsible person<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The canopy standard for emergency lighting is BS 5266-1 (Code of Practice for Emergency Lighting)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

. The British Standards Institute (BSi) guide to this code describes the duties of a “responsible person” As follows:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“The responsible person must be able to demonstrate that the hardware and maintenance of fire safety systems are adequate to protect occupants.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fire protection products and related services must be fit for their purpose<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

and properly installed and maintained in accordance with the manufacturer’s instructions or the relevant British Standard.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(Guide to Emergency Lighting 2nd Edition, 2012, p. 211)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Although this duty of care can often be shared or delegated,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

However, it remains a frightening prospect for ordinary people who have no knowledge of fire safety<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

They find themselves in a position of legal responsibility for the protection and well-being of others in this regard.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

A responsible person can be anyone who has some control over a building or areas within it<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

, including, among others, facility management companies, landlords and lettings agents.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Emergency Lighting Systems: What’s Involved?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

After a Fire Risk Assessment (FRA), which will raise the various issues that need to be addressed,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The procedure for emergency lighting will be as follows:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\"\"System planning and design<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Put on emergency lighting<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(Wall\/ceiling mounted lamps and signs)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Permanent installation of all fixtures<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Periodic testing\/maintenance of the system<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Each building will have its own requirements regarding emergency escape lighting,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The role of which, as mentioned above, is to dispense with the provision of normal lighting in the event of a power or electrical circuit failure.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Of course, \u201cnormal\u201d lighting levels will vary. These, even within an individual building.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Different areas inside will have different levels of natural lighting:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

For example, rooms with external windows have the advantage of daylight,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

While lighting should always be provided in unglazed interior areas such as corridors and stairs.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If the building is occupied at night, there should normally be provision for emergency lighting in all areas, including those that are naturally lit during the day.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

One exception may be in the case of “borrowed” Of external street lights (turned on during building occupancy hours):<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

If this is a reliable source of lighting and reaches far enough into the building to illuminate escape routes, it can sometimes be considered sufficient, depending on who will be using it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As noted by HM Government’s Fire Safety Risk Assessment: Large Assembly Places (May 2006, p. 28):<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cExceptionally, in parts of the building used by staff and where escape routes are simple and direct,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Borrowed lighting, for example from street lamps where escape routes are illuminated, may be acceptable.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, people who are familiar with the building may be able to evacuate safely in the hours of darkness by borrowed light;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

However, it is never acceptable for members of the public to use escape routes that are only lit by these means.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Emergency lighting should always be provided in this case.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

What is emergency lighting?<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The BSi Emergency Lighting Manual referred to above explains:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

“For the purposes of British and European Standard BS EN 1838, the term” \u201cEmergency lighting\u201d is the general term for equipment that provides lighting<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

In case of failure of normal lighting supply” (Page 1).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

There are two main types of emergency lighting:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

(1) Emergency escape lighting;<\/span><\/span><\/span> (2)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Backup lighting (p. 2).<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

Emergency escape lighting is defined as \u201cthat part of<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Emergency lighting provided to enable safe egress in the event of failure of the normal supply.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Backup lighting is defined as \u201cthat part of emergency lighting.\u201d<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Provided to enable normal activities to continue in the event of failure of the normal electrical supply.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The guide also makes this important distinction between emergency escape lighting and backup lighting:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

While the former forms part of the fire protection of the building,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The latter will not (unless they meet the same equipment design and installation requirements as emergency lighting systems).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As such, from the point of view of providing fire safety, emergency escape lighting is an important type of emergency lighting,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It will be the focus for the rest of this article.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Emergency escape lighting<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

\"\"There are three main aspects of emergency escape lighting:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

1) Lighting the escape route<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a02<\/span><\/span><\/span>)<\/span><\/span><\/span>Open area\/anti-panic area lighting\u00a0<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

3)<\/span><\/span><\/span>Illumination of a high-risk mission area.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Escape route lighting is part of the emergency lighting system provided to enable quick and safe evacuation of a building by illuminating escape routes<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

, such as corridors and stairs, as well as the location of fire-fighting equipment, for example.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Fire extinguishers and safety\/security equipment such as key boxes that hold emergency keys to exit doors.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As such, lighting an escape route can be viewed as a basic requirement to provide safety<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

From fires in all non-domestic buildings and public areas of HMOs, regardless of use or occupancy levels.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Large public buildings such as shopping malls, museums, exhibition halls, etc., attract large numbers of visitors who would not be familiar with the building’s design.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, panic may arise in the event of an emergency evacuation by sounding the alarm.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Open area lighting\/anti-panic lighting is relevant in such situations to help identify escape routes and exits and direct people towards them.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

High-risk task lighting is a specific type of emergency lighting provided to ensure the safety of people involved in a potentially dangerous operation or situation.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

It must be sufficient to enable the required lockdown procedures to be implemented.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

This type of lighting will only be applied across a limited set of scenarios.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

The above distinctions serve to emphasize the role of emergency escape lighting in fire safety and how it can be adapted and applied,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

On a case-by-case basis, according to the specific use and occupancy levels of a particular building and\/or areas within it.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

Where is emergency escape lighting necessary?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

In detail, as stated in HM Government publication Fire Safety Risk Assessment: Offices and Shops (p. 100),<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

An emergency lighting system should usually cover the following:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \n
  • Every exit door<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Escape routes<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Crossing paths<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Outside every final exit and on external escape routes<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Emergency escape signs<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Stairs so that each flight receives adequate light<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Changes in floor level<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Rooms without windows and toilets of more than 8 square metres<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Fire fighting equipment<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Fire alarm call points<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Equipment that must be shut down in an emergency<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Elevators<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n
  • Building areas larger than 60 m\u00b2<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    It is not necessary to provide individual lamps (luminaires) for each element above,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    But there must be a sufficient overall level of light to allow it to be visible and usable.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"What are emergency lighting bulbs?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

    There are two main types of luminaires, the relevant standard being BS EN 60598-2-22: free-standing and centrally supplied.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    A standalone lamp, as its name suggests, has all the basic components<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    (such as battery, charger, controller, lamp, diffuser and any test or monitoring facility) to even function as a standalone emergency light.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    As stated in the Fire Protection Association (FPA) Emergency Lighting Guide (2012)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This is the most common form of emergency lighting and is usually designed to be mounted on a wall or ceiling to illuminate a specific area or building feature.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    A typical example is a surface-mounted rectangular spacer lamp,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Although a wide range of freestanding luminaires are available including square, round, and recessed\/inset models.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Centrally supplied luminaires, also known as “slaves” Since it cannot operate independently, by BS EN 60598-2-22 as follows:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    “A luminaire of maintained or unmaintained operation which is energized from a central emergency power system other than that contained in the luminaire”.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Slave fixtures contain the lamp and some controls but the charger, battery and switching device are often located away and provide supply for a number of luminaires.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Again, the lamps themselves come in a range of shapes and styles. The FPA brochure contains,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Referenced above, a helpful table highlights the pros and cons of slave versus stand-alone luminaires (p. 21):<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Maintained, non-maintained, transferable emergency lighting<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    As stated in Her Majesty’s Government’s guidance on fire safety in offices and shops, referred to above:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    “can” Maintenance of “emergency escape lighting, i.e. all the time, or” \u201cNo maintenance\u201d, which only works when normal lighting is broken.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Systems or individual lighting units (luminaires) are designed to operate for periods between one and three hours after a main power outage.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    In practice, the three-hour design is the most common and can help maintain<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \u201cOn limited continued use of the premises during a power outage (other than an emergency)\u201d (Page 100).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Maintained emergency lights usually have two lumen values \u200b\u200b(a measure of luminous flux, i.e. the flux of light, from a light source) in their technical description:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    One output value when the light is powered by mains supply and another for output when the emergency light is powered by backup battery.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The latter is usually about 10 percent of the full output.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Maintained emergency lights are often available as convertible units.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This means that it can be switched between maintained and non-maintained operating modes using a regular wall-mounted light switch.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This is useful in areas that do not require constant lighting, for example stairs in a high-rise block of flats, where light is only required when someone takes the stairs rather than the elevator.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Emergency lights will, of course, remain on in the event of a power outage, even when the switch is in the \u201coff\u201d position.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    However, as noted above, the emergency light output will be about 90 percent less than normal.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    A disadvantage of unmaintained emergency lighting is that the condition of the lamp can only be verified through regular testing;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    It’s not a good idea to wait for a power outage to discover it’s not working.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    However, this problem can be overcome by installing self-testing emergency lights.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Maintained-free operation is usually preferred wherever possible, as it is cheaper in terms of energy consumption and life of the installation components.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    However, in some buildings, such as theaters and cinemas, luminaires must always be on,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    That is, it is in maintenance mode, so sometimes there is no choice in the matter.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Regarding emergency lighting maintained in areas that typically require high levels of lighting,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    For example in the corridors of office buildings, a combined or sustainable emergency lighting unit can be installed.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This type of unit has two or more lamps, at least one of which is energized by emergency supply and the rest by electrical current.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The electrically powered portion of these lights can usually be controlled with regular light switches.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Normally all lights will be lit under normal conditions, but if the power fails, only the emergency light(s) will be on, battery powered.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"Luminous signs<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Emergency lights are also available as markers;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    A typical example is the pictogram of a man running either through or toward an open doorway, with a directional arrow.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Others may also carry some text, for example ‘Fire Exit’.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    These lighting units are available in both maintained and non-maintained versions in a range of styles,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    From simple box type to \u201cblade\u201d design Elegant and slim body.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    They can be wall or ceiling mounted or hung from high ceilings with decorative chains.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Illustrations and illustrations should not be mixed with text in the same building.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Another type of illuminated sign is the photochromic or “glow-in-the-dark” style. ,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Which again shows the man running with a directional arrow and an entrance, as well as the words “exit” Or “fire escape”.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    These are available in three different sizes for wall mounting.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    These are not luminaires as such, but serve to mark the fire escape route.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Please note<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n

    Self-illuminating signs and projector lights do not count toward emergency lighting requirements for buildings and still require a standard lighting fixture to be installed nearby as if they were regular plastic signs.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    .<\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"
    red and white barricades with warning lights on a street in a residential area<\/span><\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

    Road guidance equipment<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Light marking tape, paint and flooring discs are also useful for low-level marking of escape routes<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    , especially when level changes in the building, for example stairs and uneven floors.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    As stated in Her Majesty’s Government Guidance Reference above (p. 101):<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \u201cTo complement emergency escape lighting, people can be helped,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Especially those who are not familiar with the buildings, have to determine exit routes through the use of route guidance equipment.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Wayfinding systems usually consist of light materials, LED strips or miniature incandescent strips of LEDs, which form a continuous escape route at the lower level.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    These systems have proven particularly effective when people have to escape through smoke, and for visually impaired people.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    They can be particularly useful in buildings where they can provide defined paths on floors and in multi-storey buildings they can direct people to rarely used escape routes.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    \"\"LED emergency lighting: the way forward?<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

    With increasing emphasis on environmental protection as well as energy and cost saving, LED (light emitting diode)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    An increasingly popular choice of light source for emergency lighting.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    In addition, the government is currently offering a financial incentive to switch to low-energy products:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The Enhanced Capital Allowance (ECA) scheme allows businesses to claim a 100% capital allowance for the first year on investments in certain energy saving equipment<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    , versus the taxable profits for the investment period.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    LEDs do not contain mercury, have low power consumption, high efficiency and long life (typically 10 years)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This means that they are more environmentally sound than almost any other type of light source.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    They come on instantly, unlike some energy-saving lamps, and the fact that they are much smaller, for example,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The traditional fluorescent tube means there is room for more elegant designs in emergency lights.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The latest models include three self-tests: a continuous battery test, a flashlight test, and a duration test.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Over the life of the product, this represents a significant reduction in maintenance costs.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Maintenance and testing of emergency exit lighting<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

    Government guidance states (Fire safety risk assessment: offices and shops, p. 101)<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    However, all emergency escape lighting systems must be tested regularly and properly maintained to an appropriate standard<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    (i.e. BS 5266 \u2013 Code of Practice for Emergency Lighting in Buildings).<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This test has traditionally been performed manually although emergency lights are available with a self-test facility,<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    As mentioned above.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Depending on the type of installation, trained personnel should be able to perform most routine tests themselves.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Due to different testing methods, there may be some uncertainty, in which case it is recommended to seek advice from the supplier or other competent person.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Typical testing is done by turning on a switch located either near the main fuse panel or next to the relevant light switches.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    This is also known as the “secret key” Because it is designed to allow testing of emergency lights while preventing unauthorized operation of the test switch.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Testing usually includes:<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Daily visual inspection of any central controls if a centrally powered system with dependent lighting units is installed;<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Monthly functional testing by operating the test facility long enough to ensure each emergency light is illuminated; And<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Annual full discharge test to ensure lights are on for the full discharge period (usually 3 hours) and batteries are recharged<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Particular care should be taken after a full discharge test. Batteries usually take 24 hours to recharge<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The building should not be reoccupied until the emergency lighting system is fully operational, unless alternative arrangements are made.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    It is best practice to keep a record of all tests in a fire safety log.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Digital Addressable Lighting Interface (DALI)<\/span><\/span><\/strong><\/h3>\n

    At the forefront of emergency lighting technology is DALI – an international standard created specifically for digital lighting control.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    It ensures the compatibility of products from different manufacturers and thus enables the combination of lighting solutions and different types of luminaires in a single installation.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    The DALI addressable emergency lighting system also carries out all required scheduled testing to BS 5266<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    : Each lamp in the system reports its test results to the central panel or computer<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    If a fault is detected, the unique address of the lamp means that the source as well as the nature of the problem are immediately identified.<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    Up to 120 luminaires can be controlled and monitored by the DALI touch panel, and up to 10 of these panels can be connected<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

    A maximum of 1200 emergency lights can be monitored, with minimal maintenance costs<\/span><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n
