Emergency lighting on escape routes must provide a minimum of 1 lux along the centre line for at least 3 hours under BS 5266-1, the standard for emergency escape lighting. Open area anti-panic lighting and high-risk task lighting have higher illuminance and duration requirements.

Most commercial buildings in the UK must have emergency lighting in escape routes and certain open areas, under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and BS 5266-1. This includes offices, schools, hospitals, retail, hospitality and warehouses, regardless of building size or occupancy.
