This document explains the difference between maintained and non-maintained emergency lighting fixtures. Maintained fixtures operate as normal lights that stay lit during a power outage at a lower light level using backup batteries. Non-maintained fixtures are not normally lit, have batteries that continuously charge, and only switch on during a power failure to last a minimum of 3 hours. Non-maintained fixtures are typically found in workplaces and are not part of general lighting.
