What Are Emergency Lights?
Emergency lights are lighting devices that feature an automatic battery backup. When power outages occur, these lights help brighten exit routes and safety equipment. Installing emergency lighting is a requirement for most businesses, and they serve an essential purpose during emergencies.
As a building loses power, backup lights automatically switch to built-in, rechargeable batteries. The Automatic Transfer Switch (ATS) is responsible for sensing the power loss and alternating the power source accordingly. Emergency lighting units are fixtures that illuminate stairwells, hallways, and areas with high foot traffic.
Hazard lights are specially designed to operate in hostile environments that would typically damage signs and lights. They often feature illuminated symbols to indicate emergency exit locations. These lights are constructed with materials resistant to corrosion and are effective for outdoor areas that receive a great deal of rain and moisture.
Benefits and Rules
There are several reasons why a business must have functional lighting throughout its property. They play an integral role in preventing panic and confusion during emergencies by assisting with evacuations. Backup lights also help police and firefighters navigate the property and locate people who may need assistance.
These lights contribute to the overall safety of employees and visitors by ensuring everyone can quickly find their way around during urgent situations. When power losses occur, backup lights allow you to continue normal business operations while waiting for the primary power source to be restored.
SolarGuard provides a variety of lighting options to ensure proper procedures are met in the event of an emergency. To learn more about these lighting solutions, see the Florida State Laws on emergency lighting or contact us directly at Admin@SolarGuardLLC.com.
