Scott has designed specialty indoor and outdoor lighting systems, medium- and low-voltage power distribution systems, fire alarm systems, and emergency power distribution systems. He has also performed power system evaluations, studies of existing primary and secondary distribution systems, and facility condition analyses. "[Illuminating the means of egress](https://www.csemag.com/articles/illuminating-the-means-of-egress/)," outlines the, 'differentiating requirements of egress lighting versus emergency egress lighting.' It also takes a closer look at various codes and standards that are typically required for emergency egress versus egress lighting. In addition to higher education electrical system design, Scott’s project experience has included both new construction and renovation of commercial, and governmental facilities.
