Installation and maintenance of emergency lighting

These are some method and guide to Installation and maintenance of emergency lights:

• In engineering design, to facilitate normal maintenance and management, fire emergency lighting is best based on the bearing of special feeder circuit power supply.
•  
• To ensure the reliability of fire emergency lighting power supply, conditionally, the substation low voltage emergency bus section power supply, that is, when using the diesel generator set to make the emergency power supply, as long as the generator is put into service, it has electricity to continue to ensure power supply. 3, fire condition, near the groundless smoke, more oxygen, people evacuated instinctive reaction are bent or crawling forward, so local high lighting is more effective than the uniform illumination of high installation.
•  
• Therefore, low installation should be promoted, that is, to provide emergency lighting near the ground or at ground level.
•  
• Emergency lighting is discharged in the state factory, before use must be 20 hours of charge, to complete.
•  
• The use of emergency lights should be checked regularly for performance, every half or a month by continuous switch testing, to control circuit conversion and battery emergency function and discharge, to extend battery life.
• Do a good job of power distribution line fire protection, when the dark compress in the non-burner structure, the thickness of the protective the layer is not less than 30mm when metal pipes are worn, and in the outside of the steel pipe to brush fire-resistant paint or use of other fire prevention measures; the line uses fireproof cable or refractory cable, wire.
