Emergency Lights Frequently Asked Questions

What types of emergency lighting fixtures do I need?

Most facilities need wall-mounted units, remote heads, and damp/wet-location fixtures depending on the layout and local code requirements. Always consult your fire marshal or building inspector.

How long do emergency lights operate during a blackout?

All UL 924 emergency lights provide a minimum of 90 minutes of runtime during power outages, as required by NFPA 101 and OSHA life safety codes.

How often should I inspect emergency lighting systems?

Test monthly for 30 seconds and conduct a full 90-minute test annually. Self-testing emergency lights can automate both checks and reduce inspection labor.

What environments require vandal-resistant emergency lights?

Use vandal-resistant emergency lights in locations subject to impact or abuse—such as schools, correctional facilities, transit stations, and gyms.

Do I need hazardous-location rated emergency lights?

Yes—if your facility contains flammable gases, vapors, or combustible dust. Browse our hazardous-location emergency lights for Class I Division 2 compliance.

Can I add wire guards to existing emergency lights?

Yes. We offer universal wire guards that retrofit most standard emergency light housings to protect against vandalism or accidental impact.

Are these lights activated by motion?

No. Emergency lights activate automatically during power failures or when connected to a fire alarm system. For motion-activated lighting, browse our Wall Pack Lights.
