When a fire occurs, or the power supply fails, the contractor’s first plan of action should be to evacuate pedestrians as quickly as possible. Effective emergency lighting is of critical importance.

Without it, finding your way out of a building will become difficult.

This is the reason why contractors must install photo-luminescent exit signs in their projects. The photo-luminescent signs direct pedestrians to the nearest exit. During a power outage, emergency exit signs play a crucial role in safeguarding the workplace from accidents and mishaps. But, before you install exit signs in the project, you must learn everything about exit signs.

Types of emergency lighting signs: There are four main types of emergency lighting solutions. These include escape route lighting, open area lighting, high-risk lighting, and standby lighting. Now, which one to choose will depend on the project requirement and area of application.

Code standards : Contractors have to take the code standards into account before installing exit signs. A small deviation from the standards will result in disapproval from the project manager.

Area of application: Contractors have to take the area of application into account before installing code compliant exit signs in the project.
