FAQ's
A: Emergency 600x600 LED panels are designed to provide reliable illumination during power outages, ensuring safety and visibility in commercial and public spaces. These panels integrate a built-in battery backup system that automatically activates when the main power supply fails, offering continuous lighting for a specified duration, typically up to three hours. This feature is crucial for facilitating safe evacuation and maintaining essential operations during emergencies.​
The 600x600mm size is a standard dimension that fits seamlessly into most suspended ceiling grids, making installation straightforward. These panels are commonly used in offices, schools, hospitals, and retail environments where uninterrupted lighting is essential for safety compliance and operational continuity.​
A: Emergency 600x600 LED panels feature a built-in emergency backup system designed to activate automatically in the event of a power failure. This system typically includes a rechargeable lithium battery and an emergency driver that switches the panel from mains electricity to battery power without the need for manual intervention.
When mains power is lost, the panel continues to emit light at a reduced output to conserve energy, usually for up to three hours. This is vital for maintaining visibility in workplaces, public buildings, and commercial areas during a blackout, supporting safe evacuation and continued low-level operation where needed.
In many emergency LED panel models, there’s an option for self-testing technology, which regularly checks the condition of the battery and circuitry. This ensures that the panel is fully functional and ready to perform in a real emergency scenario.
A: Yes, Emergency 600x600 LED panels are specifically designed to be straightforward to install, especially in spaces using standard suspended (grid) ceiling systems. Their square 600x600mm format allows them to slot directly into existing tile spaces, reducing the need for extra fittings or alterations.
Many emergency panel kits come pre-assembled with an emergency driver and battery pack, which simplifies the electrical connection process. Some versions also support plug-and-play wiring systems to minimise installation time. However, as the emergency function requires additional wiring for the battery backup, it’s highly recommended that a qualified electrician carries out the work to ensure safety and compliance with BS 5266 regulations.
Additional mounting options, such as surface kits or suspension wires, are also available for ceilings that don’t support recessed panel fitting.
