Emergency Electrical Services
All hospitals should have a reliable alternative source of power, in addition to the normal electrical service, for emergency lighting, for operation of essential equipment, and for the safety of its occupants.
The alternative source should be from:

  • a generator, when the normal service is supplied from one or more central transmission lines, or
  • an emergency generating set or a central transmission line, when the

normal supply is generated on the premises.

The emergency generating set, including the prime mover, should be located
on the premises, away from the operating department and the ward block. It
should be reserved exclusively for supplying electricity in an emergency. The
recommended circuits to which power should be provided are:

For  Lighting:

  • all exits, including exit signs, stairways and corridors
  • surgical, obstetrical and emergency room operating lights
  • nursery, laboratory, recovery room, intensive care unit, nursing station, labour room and pharmacy
  • generator set location, electrical switch-gear location and boiler room
  • one or two lifts, if needed for emergency
  • telephone operator’s room
  • computer room, when available Equipment
  • nurses’ call system
  • alarm system, including fire alarm
  • fire pump and pump for central suction system
  • blood bank refrigerator
  • sewerage or sump lift pump, if installed
  • equipment necessary for maintaining telephone service
  • equipment in operating, recovery, intensive care and delivery rooms
  • one electrical sterilizer, if installed

For  Heating, Cooling and Ventilation System

  • Operating rooms,
  • Delivery,
  • Labour,
  • Recovery,
  • Intensive care unit ( ICU and ICCUs)
  • Nurseries and
  • Patient rooms
  • Catscans
  • MRI and X-Rays
  • Blood bank
  • Burns Ward

The capacity of the emergency generating set should be 50-60% of the
normal electrical load of the hospital, to maintain the minimum level of services.

The emergency electrical system should be so controlled that, after
interruption of the normal electric power supply, the generator brings full voltage
and frequency within 10 seconds to all the emergency lighting and equipment
listed above. Lights powered by storage batteries can be provided to augment the
emergency lighting during the period of transfer switching, immediately following
the interruption of normal service; however, these should not be used to substitute
for the generator set.
