"Secure your staff and your family with emergency lighting routine maintenance"
Where necessary in order to safe guard the safety of relevant persons, the responsible person must ensure that routes to emergency exits from premises and the exits themselves are kept clear at all times. All emergency lighting should be regularly checked and maintained by a competent person in accordance with the manufacturers' recommendations.
The following testing is designed to ensure the continued protection of your premises and occupants; because of the possibility of a failure of the normal lighting supply occurring shortly after a period of testing, all tests should wherever possible, be undertaken at time of least risk.
The results of all testing and any necessary corrective action should be recorded in a log book held on site, which shall be available if required for inspection by any authorised person.
The following testing schedule is in accordance with BS EN 50172:2004 / BS5266-8:2004, 7.2.3 and BS 5266-8:2004, 7.2.4. All documents should be filled in on a test record BS 5266-1:2005.
