Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions About Emergency Lighting Certificates

Common questions about emergency lighting testing and certification for landlords, HMOs and businesses.

Legal Requirements

Yes. Emergency lighting is required in most commercial and shared residential buildings to ensure a safe exit during a power cut or fire, in line with the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 and the BS 5266 standard.

Routine testing is a functional check to confirm the lights still come on. A certificate is issued after a full inspection confirming the entire system meets BS 5266 and is fit for purpose.

BS 5266 recommends a brief monthly function test plus a full annual test, including the 3-hour duration test described below.

The Test

The system runs on battery power for its full rated duration (typically 3 hours) to confirm every light stays adequately lit for the whole period, as required for an annual certificate.

Yes, we test and certify emergency and exit lighting in individual flats, HMOs, communal areas and commercial premises.

We note exactly which units failed and why, with clear recommendations — usually a battery or fitting replacement — so you can get back to a compliant system quickly.
