Latest Standards for Emergency Distribution Boxes

Home / Latest Standards for Emergency Distribution Boxes

The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) has laid out a standard, NFPA 110 for emergency power systems. Emergency Power System: NEC Article 700 specifies electrical safety requirements for circuits and equipment that must operate to enable the evacuation of buildings where large numbers of people assemble, such as hotels, theaters, areas, and healthcare facilities. This standard covers performance requirements for emergency and standby power systems providing an alternate source of electrical power in buildings and facilities in the event that the normal electrical power source fails. We offer bespoke, custom-made terminal boxes and terminal box combinations, as well as standard products with short delivery times.
