EMERGENCY LIGHTING COMPLIANCE CHECKS

The Emergency Lighting internal and external provide the emergency lighting required in the event of power failure through fault or through fire to enable occupants to safely evacuate the building to a place of safety. Emergency Lighting is required when a premise’s is used outside of normal daylight hours, buildings or areas that have no natural or borrowed light and areas of specific risk.
