Exit and emergency light testing

When was the last time you had your exit and emergency lights tested for functionality? In a commercial or industrial setting, maintaining your exit and emergency lights is more than a safety consideration – it’s also a legal requirement, and if your business is caught in the dark, there could be potentially serious ramifications. Need a check-up ASAP? Call the team at Byrd Electrical on 1300 271 287 or read on to find out more about how we can help.

Why do you need exit and emergency lighting?

In the light of day, exit and emergency lighting can be easy to ignore, but in the dark – and in buildings with low natural light – it becomes a critical safety consideration, particularly in cases when emergencies lead to the loss of electricity. When kept in good working condition, the batteries in each light will be sufficient to provide at least 90 minutes of light after power failure, giving those inside the building enough time to find the exit doors and make it out.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https://byrdelectrical.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/exit-images.png” title_text=”exit-images” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” animation_style=”slide” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ module_class=”serv-section serv-section-sub” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”19.5px||19.5px||true|false” collapsed=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”2_5,3_5″ make_equal=”on” module_class=”h-tags” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” width=”100%” max_width=”100%” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ module_class=”serv-section-left” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https://byrdelectrical.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/emergency-images.png” title_text=”emergency-images” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” animation_style=”slide” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”3_5″ module_class=”serv-section-right” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Content” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Gilmer Med||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”28px” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”60px” header_3_text_color=”#02383c” header_3_font_size=”40px” min_height=”300px” custom_margin=”||39px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

What’s the process for exit and emergency light testing?

Testing exit and emergency lights is as simple as pressing the “push to test” button on the casing and timing the light for 90 minutes to ensure that it stays on. However, this is not a process you can DIY – under the National Construction Code, you must have a licensed electrician install your lights and test them every six months. To maximise the lifespan of your device, fittings in the system should also be inspected and cleaned on an annual basis.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”19.5px||77px||false|false” collapsed=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” module_class=”h-tags” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”Content” module_class=”sub-tags-up” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” text_font=”Gilmer Med||||||||” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”28px” header_2_text_align=”center” header_2_font_size=”50px” header_2_line_height=”60px” header_3_text_color=”#02383c” header_3_font_size=”40px” max_width=”688px” custom_padding=”60px||||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”]

What happens if my exit and emergency lights aren’t working properly?

There are several common signs of a faulty switchboard that require immediate attention from a professional electrician. If you have noticed your lights flickering, your appliances tripping the circuit and cutting out, or your switchboard emitting sparks or burning smells, it’s time to contact a trusted electrical team and get any concerning activity under control. With many years of industry experience, the team at Byrd Electrical are well equipped to safely and efficiently handle a wide range of electrical concerns.[/et_pb_text][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https://byrdelectrical.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/exit-emergency-images.png” title_text=”exit-emergency-images” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” animation_style=”slide” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_image][/et_pb_column][/et_pb_row][/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” background_image=”https://byrdelectrical.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2022/07/2A5A1071.png” custom_padding=”||186px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”1″ module_class=”gb-right” _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.17.3″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#000000″ text_font_size=”18px” text_line_height=”28px” header_3_font=”Gilmer Bold||||||||” header_3_text_color=”#02383c” header_3_font_size=”40px” header_3_line_height=”50px” hover_enabled=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]

Absolutely first class service from Byrd Electrical!

Ben and all the team went above and beyond what we expected and took the time to make sure everything was done to the highest standard.

In what felt like the blink of an eye, our job was quoted and the guys were onsite completing our works. Nothing was too much for them. Even when the misses changed her mind about the plans… Boyd, Mark and Rhys got the job done.

It’s great to come across a business that provides this level of service and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Byrd Electrical!
Professional and prompt with work completed in a timely fashion.
Great work, no mess, no fuss. Lots of new cameras
Excellent, friendly service from the Byrd Electrical team. Boyd explained everything clearly when quoting and was happy to answer all my questions. Ben the owner even came back after the job was completed to check everything was working properly, and while he was there found a way to get better performance out of the newly installed exhaust fans and carried out the extra work at no additional cost. Great to deal with - highly recommended!
I had a tricky power outage which seemed to be a mystery. I contacted Byrd Electrical and Mark and Lionel arrived promptly, got straight to work and diagnosed the problem incredibly quickly. What could have been a drawn out and stressful ordeal was resolved in a remarkably short time. Not only did they fix the issue but they took the time to explain. They were professional, kind and clearly knew their stuff. They had a ‘can do’ attitude. I would not hesitate to recommend Mark and Lionel to anyone needing electrical work. They were a pleasure to deal with.
From my initial enquiry, to quote, to setting a date and installation itself the communication was excellent from all the team involved. When the first heating element proved not suitable for me, Mark immediately tried to find me an alternative solution so they could complete the job same day. He spent time looking for ideas that would work in my bathroom space and came up with what is now perfect solution as I have heat and light without needing to turn on the exhaust fan every time. Mark and Lionel worked efficiently to install ceiling heater lights and I would never know it wasn’t part of the original bathrooms. They were easy to chat with and they also clean up afterwards 😊. Highly recommend.
The guys were great - cleaned up everything and all was good! And they're back today, doing more work to keep me warm. Rapt.
Just outstanding. From the initial quote to the repair, Byrd Electrical were flawless. Friendly, courteous and very efficient, every aspect of the company is customer orientated. A wholehearted recommendation from me and I will not hesitate to contact Byrd again if we require more work.
Fantastic communication throughout, prompt and thorough. Everything was explained well and certificates supplied for the completed work.
I had nearly a full day of work with 2 electricians on site. Both were courteous, clean and friendly.
