Temporary and emergency elevator interior lighting assembly

A method for providing temporary and emergency lighting in an elevator interior;

• the method comprising the steps of:
• installing a temporary LED light fixture in an elevator, the temporary LED light fixture being capable of providing sufficient illumination to provide code-compliant lighting in the elevator;
• and
• installing a temporary LED power supply on the elevator by:
• connecting and configuring an LED driver of the temporary LED power supply to provide sufficient power to one or more LEDs of the temporary LED light fixture to provide code-compliant temporary lighting in the cab, and
• connecting and configuring an emergency LED power supply module in the temporary power supply to provide sufficient power to one or more emergency LEDs to provide code-compliant emergency lighting in the cab in response to loss of building power;
• disconnecting the emergency LED power supply module from the one or more emergency LEDs;
• removing the emergency LED power supply module from the temporary LED power supply;
• and
• connecting and configuring the emergency LED power supply module to power one or more LEDs of one or more permanent elevator interior lighting fixtures in response to loss of electrical power from a primary source of electrical power.
