Emergency Round LED Panels
Emergency Round LED Panels | Energy-Efficient Lighting
FAQ's
A: Emergency round LED panels are designed for commercial and public buildings to provide emergency illumination during power cuts. They operate as standard LED panels under normal conditions, offering energy-efficient lighting. In an emergency, an internal battery automatically powers the panel, ensuring compliance with UK safety regulations. These round emergency light panels are commonly used in offices, corridors, stairwells, and other essential areas requiring emergency lighting.
A: The duration of emergency lighting is crucial for safety compliance. Emergency round LED panel lights typically include a rechargeable lithium or NiMH battery, designed to supply emergency illumination for at least 3 hours after a power outage. This duration ensures safe evacuation in commercial and industrial environments. Regular testing is recommended to maintain battery performance and ensure reliability in real emergencies.
A: Installation of emergency round LED panels should only be carried out by a qualified electrician to ensure proper wiring, safety compliance (BS 5266-1), and correct emergency functionality. The installation process involves:
- Mounting the panel securely in the designated location.Â
- Connecting the panel to the mains supply and emergency battery pack.
- Testing the emergency mode to ensure the battery activates correctly during power failure.Â
Ongoing maintenance includes:
- Monthly function test – A quick test to check that the panel switches to emergency mode.
- Annual full-duration test – Ensuring the panel provides the required 3 hours of emergency illumination.Â
- Battery replacement – Typically required every 3–5 years to maintain reliable operation.
Regular testing ensures compliance with UK emergency lighting regulations and guarantees the panel will function when needed.
