Such equipment is intended to automatically supply illumination or power or both to critical areas and eq
41、uipment in the event of failure of the normal supply, in accordance with Article 700 or 701 of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, the Life Safety Code, NFPA 101, the Fire Code, NFPA 1, the International Building Code, IBC, and the International Fire Code, IFC. 1.2 Examples of equipment described
42、 in 1.1 include: Exit Signs Emergency Luminaires Unit Equipment Central Station Battery Banks Inverters Automatic Battery Charging and Control Equipment Automatic Load Control Relays Derangement Signal Equipment 1.3 This Standard also applies to auxiliary lighting and power equipment for use in uncl
43、assied locations. Auxiliary equipment has not been investigated to determine compliance with the performance requirements of Article 700 or 701 of the National Electrical Code, NFPA 70, the Life Safety Code, NFPA 101, or the International Building Code. Such equipment includes luminaires with an int
44、egral battery backup power supply, illuminated directional signs, battery assemblies, and related devices. 1.4 This Standard does not include requirements for equipment covered by other Standards, such as: Luminaires, UL 1598 Uninterruptible Power Systems, UL 1778 Luminous Egress Path Marking System

49、te power or illumination levels, switched or normally off emergency equipment from an emergency supply in the event of failure of the normal supply, and to de-energize or return the equipment to normal status when the normal supply is restored. These devices are not transfer switches, but instead transmit power only from a single upstream source (typically, the emergency source) to specic loads. They connect to a second (typically, the normal) source of power only for monitoring purpo
