So as I understand it NONE of the emergency lights (the ones that kick on when power dies that run on batteries) turned on. I would consider that a huge fire code violation (which one asks who was signing off on their fire codes being met?)
If the emergency lights were not turning on, then I would wonder was the fire suppression system working or was it AFD that got down to the fire in the substation and put it out quick enough. With smoke on C & D concourses why didnt the smoke detectors go off?
