I think it would add to the drama of the shield generator being blown to have the lights dim slightly before the emergency power kicks in. Would just reinforce the fact the MAIN power generator has just bit the big one. Nothing ever works smoothly for the Rebels, in most cases they're surviving using old equipment cobbled together and kept working by the skin of their teeth. I doubt they'd be a smooth transition between main power and emergency, hence the lights dimming idea.
