Bishops Waltham FAQs
Which rules apply to lighting work in Bishops Waltham?
Fire safety duties come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. For new lighting, Approved Document L sets the energy efficiency requirements. We design and certify work to BS 7671 and, for emergency lighting, BS 5266-1.
Can you work out of hours in Bishops Waltham?
Yes. Evening, weekend and phased working is common for Bishops Waltham offices, shops and warehouses, so the business keeps running.
Do you cover all of Bishops Waltham?
Yes. We work across Bishops Waltham and the SO32 postcode district, plus nearby places such as Wickham, Hedge End and Bishopstoke.
Why is the annual test done out of hours?
After a full-duration test the batteries need time to recharge, so the building is less protected for a while. Testing at the end of the day avoids that risk while people are inside.
