October 5, 20178 yr comment_10887 Hello, Can anybody help me with this difficult issue? I need to design the emergency escape lighting system of a building with a complicated structure in terms of escape paths. For example there are many rooms with 2 doors. From each door of a room I can identify an escape path to a different outdoor exit. One of the 2 paths is a bit longer - for example one path crosses 2 rooms and the other one crosses 3 rooms. My question is: should I place the emergency escape luminaries near each door of a room, or i should choose only the one with the shortest path? Report

If the rooms are fairly large I would place a luminaire close to each door and then check the level of light to see if any mose are required. Report
