New York City Building Code now requires photoluminescence on exit paths.
    This standard is intended to provide minimum requirements for photo luminescent exit path markings that will
aid in evacuation from buildings in the event of failure of both the power and back-up power to the lighting
and illuminated exit signs. Photoluminescent material is charged by exposure to light and will emit luminance
after the activating light source is unavailable. The markings covered by this standard are not designed to
provide enough light to illuminate a dark egress path, but rather will provide luminescent signs and outlines of
the egress path, stairs, handrails, and obstacles, so that occupants can discern these egress path elements in
dark conditions. The markings are generally required to be located at a low location in case of smoke and to
be readily seen, such as in a crowd situation. They are in addition to, and not as a substitute for, any other
signage required under the Building Code, such as electrically illuminated exit signs with electrical back-up
power required.
