Why Emergency Lighting Inspections Matter
Emergency lighting is a legal requirement for most non-domestic buildings and shared residential properties. In the event of a power outage or fire, it provides safe, illuminated exit routes to allow occupants to evacuate safely.
A current and valid emergency lighting test certificate is essential to meet the requirements of:
- The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005
- BS 5266-1 Emergency Lighting Code of Practice
- Health and safety, insurance and risk assessment obligations
Failure to maintain compliant systems can result in legal action, fines, or serious safety consequences.
