Why Your Business Needs Emergency Lighting.....................
Although your insurance company will probably insist that you need emergency lights in your premises here is why.
Emergency lighting is important to install around your building incase of a power outage, fire, or an emergency where you would have to vacate the premises. Emergency lighting if functioning correctly will guide staff and visitors out of the building safely, by lighting up the path out of the building and towards safety in the event of an emergency.
Having emergency lighting installed correctly by a registered electrician will not only give you full peace of mind knowing that you have them but they will make you fully compliant with HSE and your insurance company.
An emergency light should last for 3 hours minimum on battery, if you already have emergency lighting do you test yours?
Working correctly emergency lighting will guide you our of your premises when in destress and in the event of an emergency. They will keep even the nervous staff safe until they vacate the building.
Emergency lighting is automatically activated when a problem (such as the fire alarm going off) is established in a room which triggers the alarm system to turn the emergency lighting on. Even with no power emergency lighting will still work as emergency lighting systems have batteries that remain charger and can function without live electricity.
Emergency lighting is now mainly all LED so these are very energy efficient and will keep your carbon footprint down!
