For emergency lighting, look no further than us, here at EMIS. We are more than happy to provide our customers with this service that has many advantages to a home or business premises. But what exactly is emergency lighting? Well. Emergency lighting is lighting for an emergency situation and is used when the main power supply has been cut and normal lighting fails. In these situations you’ll experience sudden darkness and of course, this has the potential to lead to injuries.
Emergency lighting is required to operate automatically and provide a building with enough light so that all occupants can safely move around the building, whether in a home or business premises. Most newly built buildings have emergency lighting installed during the construction process and are installed in accordance with the current Building Regulations and also local authority requirements.
Emergency lighting is a general term and is sub divided into standby lighting and emergency escape lighting.
Emergency escape lighting provides the occupants of a home or business premises with light, so they can safely leave the building. This is part of the fire safety provision of a building and is also a requirement of The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
Standby Lighting is also part of the emergency lighting system and it works to ensure normal activities can carry on. It is not a legal requirement and so it may or may not be required. It really all depends on the purpose and occupancy of the building premises.
For more information about our emergency lighting services please do not hesitate to get in touch with us. We would be more than pleased to explain all that’s involved in installation and the many benefits it will bring to your home or business premises.
We look forward to hearing from you!
