Emergency lighting testing in Truro
In short: monthly function tests, annual duration tests and certificates. Self-test fittings make monthly checks easier in Truro buildings, but someone still needs to read the indicators and keep the log book.

Local emergency lighting testing in Truro
Annual emergency lighting tests in Truro are best booked for late afternoon or evening, so batteries can recharge overnight before people are back in.
Where Truro buildings have changed layout, the annual test is a good moment to check that routes are still properly covered.
Our teams travel to Truro from across Cornwall. Typical nearby jobs include Kenwyn, Perranarworthal and Tregoney, so we can often combine survey visits.
