During power failures, areas that do not have enough natural light to clearly see exit corridors, exit stairs or exit doors should be evacuated while emergency lights are on. Entry to the building should not be made until power is restored. Emergency lighting is temporary and is not provided to continue building operations. During a power failure in a laboratory, safely turn off gasses and equipment and leave the laboratory.

If flooding occurs, stop using electrical equipment until repairs are accomplished and the area is dry.
