Keeping People Safe When It Matters Most
Emergency lighting is one of the most important life safety systems within any building. In the event of a power failure, fire, or emergency situation, emergency lighting helps occupants safely find exit routes, identify fire safety equipment, and evacuate the building quickly and safely.
At Morecom Ltd, we design, install, test, maintain, inspect, and certify emergency lighting systems across a wide range of environments, helping businesses meet their legal obligations while ensuring the safety of staff, visitors, customers, and building occupants.
Whether you’re responsible for an office, warehouse, factory, school, hospital, GP surgery, retail unit, apartment building, hotel, or industrial facility, emergency lighting plays a critical role in protecting lives.
Emergency lighting is a backup lighting system that automatically operates when the normal mains power supply fails.
Unlike standard lighting, emergency lighting contains battery backup systems that immediately illuminate critical areas when a power outage occurs.
These systems help ensure:
In many situations, emergency lighting may be the difference between a safe evacuation and a potentially dangerous incident.
Emergency light fittings contain rechargeable batteries that remain on charge during normal operation.
When mains power fails:
The transition is automatic and happens within seconds.
This means that even during a complete power failure, essential lighting remains available.
Most emergency lighting systems are designed to provide a minimum operational duration of three hours.
This duration is important because it allows:
A three-hour duration is considered the accepted standard for most commercial premises and public buildings.
Emergency lighting that cannot sustain its required operating period may not provide adequate protection during an emergency.
During an emergency, people naturally look for the nearest exit.
Clearly illuminated exit signs help occupants quickly identify escape routes, particularly in unfamiliar buildings.
Exit signage should remain visible even when normal power is unavailable.
Properly positioned illuminated exit signs assist with:
Safe evacuation
Faster escape times
Reduced confusion
Improved compliance
Enhanced life safety
This is particularly important in:
Emergency lighting is not limited to indoor areas.
Morecom Ltd installs and maintains emergency lighting systems for both internal and external locations.
Proper external emergency lighting can be just as important as internal systems during an evacuation.
Morecom Ltd provides emergency lighting services across a wide variety of sectors.
No matter the size or complexity of the premises, emergency lighting should be designed around the building’s specific evacuation requirements.
In many commercial, industrial, public, and multi-occupancy buildings, emergency lighting is a legal requirement.
Building owners, employers, landlords, and responsible persons have a duty to ensure that emergency escape routes can be safely used during a power failure or emergency situation.
Failure to maintain emergency lighting could result in:
Regular inspection and maintenance are essential parts of this responsibility.
A brief function test should be carried out regularly to verify:
A full duration test should normally be undertaken annually.
This involves:
Testing helps identify issues before they become safety risks.
Following installation, inspection, or maintenance, appropriate documentation should be maintained.
Depending on the work carried out, certification may include:
Maintaining accurate records is an important part of demonstrating compliance and supporting fire risk management.
