About emergency lighting
Emergency lighting is a life-safety requirement for commercial buildings, illuminating escape routes when the mains fails. Ricoman offers maintained and non-maintained fittings, exit signage and emergency variants of standard luminaires to keep specifications simple and compliant.
Do your emergency fittings support BS 5266?
Our emergency products are designed to support compliance with BS 5266; always confirm the scheme against the standard and a competent design.
What's the difference between maintained and non-maintained?
Maintained fittings stay lit in normal use and on battery during failure; non-maintained only illuminate when the mains fails.
How long do the batteries last in a power cut?
Emergency fittings provide a minimum three-hour duration as standard for most commercial applications; see the product specification.
