Line 11:
Well designed fire exit signs are necessary for fire exits to be effective. In the [[United States]] fire escape signs usually display the word "EXIT" in large, well-lit, green or red letters. Sometimes an arrow is displayed as well. In the [[European Union]], fire exit signs use pictorial symbols to convey their meaning. Some signs are self-illuminated, using tritium powered [[traser]] light sources.
In the [[United Kingdom]], under the [[Health and Safety]] ([[Safety]] [[Sign]]s and [[Distress signal|Signal]]s) [[Statutory Instrument|Regulations]] [[1996]], signs are required to bear a picture or symbol that clearly illustrates the sign.
