LynTec, a leading manufacturer of innovative electrical power control solutions for
professional audio, video, and lighting systems, today announced that its Remote
Power Controller (RPC) family of panels has received UL 924 certification, ensuring
that LynTec offers panels that conform to UL’s standard for emergency lighting and
power equipment.

“Emergency lighting is something every entertainment space must plan for but
hopes they’ll never have to use,” said Mark Bishop, president of LynTec. “The
lighting features in our RPC panels make today’s emergency lighting applications
significantly simpler, less costly, and more compact. And now that the panels meet
UL 924 requirements, entertainment lighting professionals can be certain that the
lighting will be up to code when providing potentially lifesaving illumination in an
emergency situation.”

The entire RPC controller panel family turns circuits on instantly and automatically
for emergency egress lighting, regardless of control protocol or zone assignment. It
eliminates the need for separate emergency lighting relay panels, which saves
space and lowers installation costs. The UL 924-listed panels, used in conjunction
with an upstream transfer switch, help ensure that users comply easily with federal,
state, and local egress or emergency lighting codes as required for any new or
upgraded lighting installation.

The UL 924 standard applies to emergency lighting and power equipment intended
for connection to branch circuits of 600 volts or less. Such equipment is intended to
automatically supply illumination or power or both to critical areas and equipment
in the event of failure of the normal supply, in accordance with the National
Electrical Code.
