Emergency lighting not required private homes because the occupants
are familiar with their surroundings, but public buildings people are in

Emergency lighting (BS 5266 and 1838)
Emergency lighting should planned, installed and maintained the
highest standards reliability and integrity, that will operate satisfac-
torily when called into action, matter how infrequently this may be. most premises the alternative
power supply would from batteries, but generators may also used. Standby lighting may also required for security rea-
sons.
Security cameras should robustly fixed and cable runs designed that
they cannot sabotaged potential intruder.
Emergency lighting provided for two reasons; illuminate escape
routes, called ‘escape’ lighting; and enable process activity con-
tinue after normal lights failure, called ‘standby’ lighting.
Standby lighting required hospital operating theatres and indus-
try, where operation process once started must continue, even the
mains lighting fails.

Cameras may fixed movable under remote control, such those
used for motorway traffic monitoring. some premises delay more than considered

Generators can have large capacity and duration, but major disadvan-
tage the delay time while the generator runs speed and takes
over the load. The escape lighting scheme should be
planned that identifiable features and obstructions are visible the
lower levels illumination which may prevail during emergency. emergency people not always act rationally,
but well illuminated and easily identified exit routes can help reduce panic.

Emergency supplies
Since emergency occurring building may cause the mains supply
to fail, the emergency lighting should supplied from source which
is independent from the main supply.58.
Escape lighting usually required local and national statutory authori-
ties under legislative powers.
A permanent record the CCTV pictures can stored and replayed by
incorporating video tape recorder into the system the practice in
most banks and building societies. Exit
routes should clearly indicated signs and illuminated uniform
level, avoiding bright and dark areas.
Using remote control, the camera can panned, tilted focused and
have its viewing screen washed and wiped
