The emergency lights need to be operated on an annual basis for a minimum of 90 minutes to test the full capacity of the batteries. In the self-test method, the units can test themselves and indicate an issue on the unit via an indicator light.
Section 7.9. 3 of that code recommends a monthly test of emergency lighting for at least 30 seconds, as well as an annual test for at least 90 minutes to verify that the lights would remain on for an extended period of time.
For the annual test, the requirements for emergency lighting are to test for a duration of three hours. When doing so, the primary lighting circuit must be switched off and emergency lights left on for three hours in line with BS 5266-1. All luminaires should remain lit throughout this period.
Compliance with legal requirements is a fundamental reason for obtaining an emergency light certificate. Regulations mandate that businesses must have operational emergency lighting systems to ensure the safety of occupants during emergencies.
Regardless of the type of system you have, it must be tested for a duration of 30 seconds, generally, once every 30 days and annually for a duration of 1.5 hours. Additionally, all emergency lighting must be fully operational throughout the duration of all tests conducted.
