If you're arranging emergency lighting maintenance or reviewing your current compliance arrangements, the information below explains the testing process, legal responsibilities and why routine maintenance is essential for building safety.
1. What happens if faults are found during testing?
If defects are identified, we'll explain the findings clearly and provide practical recommendations to help restore your emergency lighting system to full operational condition as efficiently as possible.
2. How often should emergency lighting be maintained?
Monthly function tests and an annual inspection are standard requirements under UK law to keep systems operational and compliant.
3. Is it a legal requirement to maintain my emergency lighting system?
Where emergency lighting has been installed and deemed necessary through the fire risk assessment, legislation requires it to be maintained in an efficient state, in efficient working order and in good repair. Failure to maintain the system may result in non-compliance with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005.
4. Can you maintain emergency lighting in listed and period buildings?
Yes. We can work with heritage properties, listed buildings, historic commercial premises, hotels, offices, schools and many other occupied environments, tailoring our maintenance approach to reflect the characteristics of each building.
5. How long does annual emergency lighting testing take?
Annual testing requires the emergency lighting system to operate on battery power for a three-hour discharge period in accordance with BS 5266.
