Emergency Lighting Testing

What is Emergency Lighting Testing?

Emergency Lighting Testing is the testing of all back up lighting on a premises with the aim of ensuring that emergency lights are of adequate intensity, in working order and will illuminate in the event of a fire or emergency to allow safe escape from the building. Emergency Lighting should also adequately allow identification of safety signs and equipment such as fire fighting equipment.

Why is Emergency Lighting Testing Required?

All owners of business or public premises have a legal obligation to commission and maintain the emergency lighting system installed. Testing should be carried out periodically as specified in Health & Safety Legislation and the National Standards Authority of Ireland (NSAI) I.S. 3217:2008 Code of Practice. In common with the regulations concerning Fire Detection & Alarm Systems, quarterly inspection and annual tests of the Emergency Lighting System must be carried out and records maintained.
