Emergency lighting inspection testing in London
Emergency lighting is vital to your commercial building. Designed to ensure that anyone within the building can evacuate safely should the main lighting fail, it’s required to operate fully automatically and give off an illumination of a high enough level to enable all occupants to safely get out of the premises.
As part of health and safety protocol, in particular, Fire Precautions Risk Assessment, employers are required to carry out Periodic Inspection and Testing of their emergency lighting in accordance with the requirements of BS 5266.
Emergency lighting is comprised of three parts which are:
- Emergency escape lighting – This provides illumination to light the way out for people leaving a building, so that they can leave safely, identifying any hazards in their way.
- Standby lighting – This is to provide normal standard lighting should the main lighting power fail.
- Escape route lighting – Lighting which clearly identifies the means of safe exit.
All emergency lighting systems are legally required to be maintained, tested and inspected at regular intervals.
At SW Electricians, we can assist you to ensure that your emergency lighting systems are safe, and well maintained. We can offer service plans which include regular testing, identification of faults, and quick remedial action.
