What is Emergency Light Testing?

Emergency Light Testing involves inspecting and assessing emergency lighting systems installed to operate during power failures. These systems activate automatically to provide sufficient illumination, ensuring safe evacuation during emergencies such as fires or power cuts. At PPL Electrical Services, we meticulously test each component of your system to ensure it meets British Standard guidelines, offering peace of mind that your emergency lighting is always ready to perform.

How Often Should Emergency Lights Be Tested?

Regular testing is essential to maintain the reliability of emergency lighting systems. Monthly checks, often conducted in-house, involve a quick functionality test. An annual full-duration test, performed by a certified professional, ensures lights remain operational for a minimum of three hours. Our experienced engineers handle these critical tests, providing detailed reports and recommendations to keep your systems compliant and dependable.

Is Emergency Light Testing a Legal Requirement?

Yes, emergency lighting is mandated under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. BS EN 1838 also outlines specific requirements for escape and standby lighting. Regular testing ensures compliance with these regulations, protecting your employees, customers, and visitors. Failure to comply may result in significant legal and safety risks. At PPL Electrical Services, we help businesses meet these obligations, ensuring peace of mind and workplace safety.
