Central Battery System

From an aesthetics point of view, the self-contained emergency luminaire is often frowned upon by architects and building users, who prefer to see a single type of luminaire utilised for both normal and emergency lighting. Probably the most elegant way of achieving this goal is to select a number of mains luminaires for emergency use and power them from a central battery system.
The output from such systems can be controlled and used exactly like the normal mains supply, so different types of system can be configured to match customers’ requirements. In the case of AC/AC systems, the output can be connected directly to suitably designed mains luminaires so that, without having to make any modification to the luminaires, they operate at full light output under both ‘mains healthy’ and ‘mains failed’ conditions. This enables the emergency lighting system to be extremely unobtrusive and versatile.
Although their prime function is to provide luminaires with power during emergency operation, central battery systems can also be considered as an alternative lighting circuit which, in many cases, makes a valuable contribution to the operation of the building. Maintained outputs can be provided for minimal extra cost, and as the whole circuit can be isolated very simply, control of maintained lights or signs is much easier than with individually switched, self-contained luminaires.
