The main function of emergency lighting is to safely proceed to the nearest emergency exit. These safety devices are an essential element of an emergency plan since they supply emergency lighting and allow people to move safely toward an exit. Indeed, emergency managers should ensure that all personnel who might otherwise find themselves in a building have no hurdles to overcome when evacuating in case of power failure.

Emergency lighting equipment comprises mainly four elements:

• Electric circuit which normally charge the batteries and switch on lightbulbs in the event of power outage
• Spotlights located strategically to floodlight the escape path
• Batteries which supply up to 30 minutes of power to the lightbulbs
• Housing which contains all batteries, circuits and lightbulbs
