Emergency Light testing should be carried out on a regular basis. Once completed the emergency light test readings should be placed in the log book provided for recording keeping. This will include the time and date. Once completed by a contractor you should also receive a emergency light certificate. Our skilled engineers carry out a variety of tests on your lighting systems:
- Each light is inspected to ensure the bulb is functional and the housing is secure and undamaged.
- All the lights are isolated from their electrical supply for three hours to ensure they can maintain illumination for the required period of time.
- Tested areas are inspected to ensure that they have sufficient emergency lighting and signage.
Failure to comply with these requirements can result in prosecution. You could ultimately end up in a criminal court if there is serious injury or death; as a failure to comply with the emergency light testing procedures.
