Emergency lights are self contained units that are wired into the mains and have a battery inside, which means they have the benefit of backup power that enables them to remain illuminated should the mains power fail.
The lights must be regularly maintained to ensure the batteries and bulbs are in good working order under BS 5266 and BS5588. Our engineers can ensure you lights will work should an emergency occur so that your building can be evacuated quickly and safely.
