BS 4533-102.22:1990
National foreword
This Section of BS 4533 has been prepared under the direction of the Electrical
Illumination Standards Policy Committee and is the English language version of
EN 60 598-2-22 Luminaires Part 2: Particular requirements Section 22
Luminaires for emergency lighting, published by the European Committee for
Electrotechnical Standardization (CENELEC). It was derived by that
organization from IEC Publication 598-2-22 (1990) edition 2, which has a similar
title as that of the European Standard. This Section of BS 4533 supersedes
BS 4533-102.22:1981 which is withdrawn.
The CENELEC Common Modifications have been implemented at the
appropriate places in the text of IEC Publication 598-2-20 (1990) edition 2, and
are indicated by a side line in the margin. The foreword and preface of IEC
Publication 598-2-22 (1990) edition 2, and the deleted parts of the original IEC
text which do not form part of the text of EN 60 598-2-22 have been quoted in
National appendix NA. Annexes designated normative are part of the body of
the standard. Annexes designated informative are given for information only.
National appendices are designated informative.
In 22.1, 22.2, 22.12 and 22.13 where the words section of Part 2 of
IEC Publication 598, section of Part 2 and section of IEC Publication 598-2
appear they should be read as section of BS 4533. In 22.1 and 22.2 where
Part 1 appears this should be read as Part 101. Where the words
Publication 598-1 appear they should be read as BS 4533-101.
Cross-references. Details of other international publications quoted in this
British Standard are given in Annex ZA. Where there are British Standards
corresponding to these international standards the relationships are given in
National appendix NB.
Product certification. Users of this British Standard are advised to consider
the desirability of third party certification of product conformity with this British
Standard based on testing and continuing surveillance, which may be coupled
with assessment of a suppliers quality systems against the appropriate Part of
BS 5750.
Enquiries as to the availability of third party certification schemes will be
forwarded by BSI to the Association of Certification Bodies. If a third party
certification scheme does not already exist, users should consider approaching an
appropriate body from the list of Association members.
A British Standard does not purport to include all the necessary provisions of a
contract. Users of British Standards are responsible for their correct application.
Compliance with a British Standard does not of itself confer immunity
from legal obligations.

Sub-clause 22.6.8 implies that the minimum interval between replacements is four years. To comply with
this requirement, a battery with excess initial capacity should be chosen so that the luminaire will achieve
its duration as marked, up to the time of battery replacement. The amount of excess initial capacity
required depends on the type of battery chosen.
A4 Where a luminaire is designed for mounting in any attitude, care should be taken in the choice of
battery. Some types of sealed lead acid batteries are unsuitable for this type of application.

Annex ZD (informative)
Rest mode luminaires
It is necessary to protect the integrity of emergency luminaires when the building is unoccupied. This can
be achieved by installing the luminaires on a separate sub-circuit in the building so that when the power
is switched off to all the normal circuits the emergency luminaires are left connected so that the batteries
continue to be charged and the luminaires do not change over to the emergency mode.
Alternatively, the emergency luminaires may be constructed to include rest mode provisions. In this case
all the power to the building may be switched off, but then remote control devices and special wiring for
them must be installed to switch the luminaires into the rest mode so that the luminaires do not change
into the emergency mode when the power is switched off.
The advocates of non-rest mode luminaires give the following supporting arguments:
1. The luminaires are more simple and probably therefore more reliable.
2. No special action is necessary on re-occupation of the building to re-set the luminaires.
3. In the event of an emergency when the building is unoccupied, the luminaires will switch to the
emergency mode for the benefit of security personnel.
4. At present no specifications exist for the special remote control devices essential to rest mode
operation.
5. Clearly drafted wiring rules are not available in most countries for rest mode circuits in the building.
On the contrary, countries using rest mode luminaires point out that:
1. With all power switched off when the building is unoccupied, a safer condition exists.
2. Experience gained so far with rest mode luminaires leads to the conclusion that they are reliable and
installation problems can be satisfactorily resolved.
3. The rest mode protects the batteries before installation and during storage. These luminaires can
therefore be delivered with the batteries included, whereas without the rest mode the batteries must be
commissioned by the installing engineer.

22.6 Construction
22.6.1 The following text has been added to the end of the first paragraph.
and the starter shall not be in the circuit in the emergency mode.
22.6.5 The following text has been replaced.
Luminaires providing emergency lighting by means of tungsten filament lamps in general need only use
one lamp. In France, a minimum of two lamps connected in parallel shall be used.
Compliance shall be checked by inspection.
22.6.13 The following text of the second sentence of the first paragraph (including the formulae) has been
replaced.
This protection shall be achieved by the incorporation of an electronic system that limits further battery

determined as below:
Vmin = X n
where:
n = number of cells
and for lead acid batteries:
X = 1.6 V for 1 h duration (or less)
X = 1.7 V for 3 h duration

supplied luminaires, during operation at rated supply voltage.
A note has been added following the third paragraph.
22.17 Changeover operation
22.17.1 The following note has been deleted.
NOTE At the present time the above values are not acceptable in Japan, Portugal and Italy.
22.17.2 In the first paragraph minimum rated supply voltage (range) has replaced rated supply voltage.
In the first sentence of the third paragraph [at 0.85 times minimum rated supply voltage (range)] has
replaced (at rated voltage).
22.18 High temperature operation
The text of this sub-clause, given below, has been replaced.

BS 4533-102.22:1990
Self-contained emergency luminaires shall be capable of operating satisfactorily in the emergency mode at
an ambient temperature of 70 C for at least half of rated duration.
Compliance shall be checked by satisfying the following test:
The luminaire shall be charged for 24 h at ta in a draught-free enclosure and at rated supply voltage. The
luminaire, whilst still connected to rated supply, is. then placed in a pre-heated enclosure
at 70 C. After 1 h at this higher temperature the self-contained luminaire shall be changed over to the
emergency mode and shall provide at least 50 % rated lumen light output for at least 50 % of rated
duration.
22.19 Battery chargers for self-contained emergency luminaires
22.19.1 The phrase 90 % to 106 % of the rated supply voltage has been replaced by 0.9 times the
minimum rated supply voltage (range) and 1.06 times the maximum rated supply voltage (range).
