NEC Article 620: Elevators, Part 2
Other building loads, such as power and lighting, may function as the energy absorbing means, provided these loads are automatically connected to the emergency or standby power
Elevator Design Coordination and Best Practices
The location of power delivery varies with the manufacturer and elevator type and must be coordinated. Elevator equipment is often selected with the lowest possible fault current rating to
Stumped by the Code? NEC Requirements for Elevators and Escalators
A. A disconnect must be provided for each elevator, escalator, or moving walk. The disconnect for the main power supply conductors is not permitted to disconnect power to the branch circuits required in
Dedicated Branch Circuits | UpCodes
For each of the following circuits, provide a separate, dedicated branch circuit with a fused disconnect or breaker in the elevator MR or CR. Disconnects and breakers must be designed to be lockable in the
2020 NEC 620.62 Selective Coordination ''elevator supplied from
You must coordinate the breakers so that a fault at the elevator doesn''t take out any other breaker in the facility. Here is a pic that shows selective coordination requirements.

Temporary Power and Dedicated Circuits for New Elevator Installation
Install a separate temporary power panel (not tied to main permanent elevator circuits). Ensure temporary circuits are physically separated from those intended for the finished elevator system.
700.10 (B) Emergency System Wiring.
When normal power is not present because of an outage, the emergency source intervenes to provide backup power. The emergency source is permitted to supply both emergency loads and non
