These lights are located in common areas of the building and stairways to provide adequate light for people to safely exit the building in case of an emergency. When your building has a power outage, emergency lights turn on automatically and indicate the safest route for occupants to exit the building. Under the AS/NZS 2293, emergency lighting is essential. Emergency lights can keep the building illuminated for at least 90 minutes for occupants to safely evacuate the building.
BPS Electrics can design, install, test and maintain your emergency lighting system. Our electricians are licensed and can help with all your emergency lighting requirements. Need expert help now? Book an electrician today.
Maintained - maintained lights are always functional and switch to battery operation in case of a power outage. These lights are used in car parks and emergency stairwells.
Non-maintained - they are functional in times of a power outage. LED spitfires and floodlights are examples of non-maintained emergency lights
Sustained - Sustained lights use a different light source in an emergency mode. They have two lamps within the light fitting and only one lamp works in the case of an emergency.
According to AS 2293, the emergency light fittings need to be tested every 6 months. Each fitting is inspected and faulty fittings are replaced.
The fittings are then tested for 90 minutes without the main power supply. This test ensures the battery is functional and the lights remain active for the duration of the test. The test results including the fittings that pass or fail the test as well as their locations are recorded.
We provide testing for exit and emergency lighting systems. We can also combine your emergency light testing with electrical inspections, test and tag services, smoke alarm and safety switch testing. Discuss your requirements with our electricians and we will be happy to help.
