Technically, only the rigs need to be on emergency power in the Class A
category. All other items (i.e lights, computer, etc.) can be on commercial
mains.

The FD rules specify the rig must be run from a power source other than
mains.
But how would station accessories (like a power meter used to ensure QRP
power compliance, for example) or non-station gear (lighting, computer, etc)
treated?
I can see it either way. However, it seems to me that in a real
emergency, the only thing that counts is power to the rig. Anything a guy
brings to
facilitate contest scoring (computers), personal comfort (electric seat
warmer) or whatever would not be there in an emergency and I expect is not
considered “rig”.
