Emergency Lighting Testing & Maintenance
Annual Emergency Lighting Testing at a local Bowling Club
To ensure the continued safety of staff and visitors, Matt Browning Electrical were contracted to carry out the annual testing of the existing interior and exterior emergency lighting at a sports facility in Maidenhead, Berkshire.
Working out-of-hours, our team carried out the testing and documented the results to demonstrate the emergency lighting performed correctly. Where our test report identified faulty lights, we provided a fixed price quote and were subsequently appointed to supply & fit replacements as part of our electrical maintenance service.
Annual testing and routine maintenance provides assurance that emergency lighting will continue to operate for the correct duration to allow safe evacuation in the event of power failure .
Emergency lighting is required in premises to enable occupants to escape safely in an emergency situation. BS 5266-1 states that a building must have adequate illumination to support escape and identify firefighting equipment (or any other fire safety equipment). The standard defines minimum lux levels and duration.
In the UK, is a legal requirement under both Building Regulations and the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, that all business premises including offices, factories, pubs and clubs, schools, hospitals and entertainment venues – including tents and marquees – are provided with emergency escape lighting.
