The National Construction Code now mandates that emergency lighting is to be designed in accordance to AS 2293. To meet these requirements, NHP has announced the Cortem EXEL-L series of emergency LED lights are certified to AS 2293.3, making NHP the only supplier in Australia and New Zealand to offer Ex certified emergency lighting with AS 2293 certification, says the company. 

This means the range now comes with photometric classification data (C0 and C90 values), which provides guidance in the lighting design process, and also passes the stringent charge/discharge requirements of AS 2293. 

To ensure NHP continues offering the local market with quality products adhering to standards, compliance testing to AS2293.3 for NHP’s extensive range of Hazardous Area LED lighting products is currently underway.
