Emergency lighting

19 June, 2005

This eye-catching question is used in Cooper Lighting & Security’s guidance on the importance of good-quality emergency lighting.

Cooper Lighting & Security has published a hard-hitting document outlining the key reasons for avoiding poor-quality emergency lighting. This 8-page document reminds readers of the safety-critical nature of emergency lighting and draws attention to legal requirements for performance, testing and maintenance. The document emphasises the benefits of using luminaires that have been BSI kitemarked and ICEL approved. Quality-assured products often offer superior performance, so that the required lighting levels can be achieved with fewer fittings — reducing installation and running costs.
