Lithonia Lighting EDG 1 RMR EL M6 – Frequently Asked Questions

1) Will the Lithonia EDG edge-lit exit sign run on 277V, or do I need a separate 120V model?
One model covers both. The EDG 1 EL M6 accepts 120/277 volt input, so the same sign can go into a 120V branch circuit in a tenant space or a 277V circuit in a commercial panel without ordering a different part number. That is the main reason it standardizes well across a mixed-voltage building.
2) What is the difference between the Lithonia EDG 1 R EL M6 and the EDG 1 RMR EL M6?
Both are red-letter edge-lit EDG signs with the emergency battery option; the difference is the face treatment. EDG-1-R-EL-M6 is the standard panel, and EDG 1 RMR EL M6 is the mirrored face, which reads with a reflective background rather than a clear one. Spec the mirror version where you want the sign to blend with finished lobby or retail interiors, and the standard version for corridors, stairs, and back-of-house.
3) Does this Lithonia exit sign stay lit if the power goes out?
Yes. The EL in EDG 1 EL M6 is the emergency battery option, so the sign carries its own battery backup and the red letters remain illuminated when normal power drops. That is what a facility needs for egress marking on an emergency circuit; a non-EL sign would go dark.
4) Is the Lithonia EDG exit sign surface mount or can it be recessed?
Surface mount. The EDG 1 EL M6 is configured for surface mounting on a wall or ceiling along corridors, stairwells, and other egress paths. If your drawing calls for a recessed or flush-in-wall exit sign, this is not the fixture for that opening.
5) Will a red-letter exit sign be accepted in my building, or do I need green letters?
The EDG 1 EL M6 is a red-letter sign only. Letter color is set by the authority having jurisdiction in your area; most of the US runs red, while some jurisdictions and international projects require green. Confirm with your AHJ before you standardize a building on red, because the letter color is not field-changeable on this fixture.
6) Why choose an edge-lit exit sign over a standard panel-face LED exit sign?
Edge-lit construction fires the LEDs into the edge of the panel so light spreads evenly across the whole face, rather than lighting the letters from behind. Two practical results: no hot spots or dim letters as the sign ages, and a much thinner profile. A conventional thermoplastic panel sign is the cheaper, more utilitarian choice for warehouses and service corridors; the EDG makes more sense in lobbies, offices, healthcare, and schools where the sign is visible in a finished space.
7) Can I use the Lithonia EDG exit sign to replace an older incandescent or fluorescent exit sign?
It is a direct functional replacement on the same 120V or 277V feed, and it draws far less power than the incandescent or fluorescent sign it takes out, with battery backup built in. Note the mounting difference: the EDG is a surface-mount edge-lit fixture, so if the old sign was recessed into the wall you will have a patch to deal with at the existing box.
8) Is the Lithonia EDG 1 EL M6 a single-face or double-face exit sign?
The 1 in EDG 1 EL M6 designates single face. Use it where the sign is seen from one direction, such as flat against a corridor wall or over a door. For an opening where traffic approaches from both sides, such as a ceiling-hung or end-of-corridor pendant location, you need the double-face configuration instead.
9) What is the housing made of on the Lithonia EDG edge-lit exit sign?
Aluminum, in a brushed finish. The brushed aluminum housing is low profile, which is why this one gets specified in finished commercial interiors where a stamped thermoplastic exit sign looks out of place. It also holds up in institutional and industrial corridors better than a plastic housing.
