The National Electrical Code (NEC) outlines emergency lighting requirements primarily in Article 700, which governs emergency systems that must operate safely during power failures. This section covers installation standards, wiring methods, circuit protection, and power supply requirements to ensure reliable illumination in emergencies. In some cases, Article 701, which addresses legally required standby systems, may also apply to specific facilities. Always refer to the latest NEC edition and local code amendments for compliance and safety verification.
