Correct answer to question 11009
- A: The failure of any individual lighting element must not leave a required space in total darkness
Explanation
Emergency lighting must be arranged so that the failure of any single lighting element, such as a lamp, will not leave in total darkness any space that requires emergency illumination. Using two or more luminaires on separate circuits, or unit equipment, meets this goal.
