Emergency lighting legally required in most commercial and some residential buildings e.g. the communal areas of HMO's under British Standards BS 5266. These regulations ensure that in case of a power outage, clear, well-lit escape routes guide occupants to safety. An exception may be in the case of ‘borrowed’ light, where if the lights from external street lamps are a reliable source of lighting to illuminate escape routes, it can sometimes be considered sufficient. The British Standards specify where lights should be placed, what kind of lights are needed, and the testing requirements to ensure the systems are operational. Following these guidelines helps meet health and safety obligations while ensuring the safety of employees, visitors, and residents.
When choosing emergency lighting, it’s essential to understand the difference between maintained and non-maintained systems. Maintained emergency lights are designed to stay on continuously, making them suitable for areas like corridors and public spaces where lighting is required at all times. Non-maintained lights, on the other hand, only activate during power failures. These are commonly used in areas that don’t require constant lighting but still need to ensure safe evacuation during emergencies. Both types are integral to a building's overall safety plan.
LED emergency lighting offers significant advantages over traditional lighting systems, particularly in terms of energy efficiency and longevity. LEDs consume less power, helping reduce energy costs, while providing bright, reliable illumination for emergency situations. Additionally, LED lights have a longer lifespan, requiring less frequent replacements, which minimises maintenance. These benefits make LED emergency lighting a practical and environmentally friendly choice for both commercial and residential premises, ensuring safe evacuation routes with minimal environmental impact.
