How often must emergency lighting be checked?

To ensure that emergency lighting functions properly from the start, the law dictates  that the entire system must be checked already during commissioning. Amongst other things elements of the back-up power supply, the battery compartment and the required nominal operating time are checked. The simulation of a power failure is also an important point when checking the system.

The documentation of the test is also regulated by law. All test logs, which are created during the inspection dates, are collected in a log book. In our technical article you can find out which documents must be presented.
