Emergency Lighting Phase Failure Relay (product selection)

Steven Mulvenna

Hi there,

For a central battery-supplied emergency lighting system, I am looking for a phase failure relay to monitor the general lighting sub-circuits.

I used a phase failure relay on a project a number of years ago that monitored 4 separate phases meaning I could have 4 general lighting circuits and if any of which failed, the single emergency circuit for the same area was energised automatically.

I am not unable to find this product anywhere now, does anyone have an idea who makes something like this?

BTW, I cannot use ACMs on this project, hence the need for PFRs at the DB.

    Steven, central battery units I've used in the past incorporate final circuit monitoring and can either turn on all circuits in the event of a single phase failure or turn on a specific circuit of luminaires and all is monitored within the central battery unit, all connected emergency lights are wired directly from the central battery unit. 

    If you have a google of hold-off relays or sub-circuit monitoring relays, you might find something that suits
