Emergency lighting testing FAQs for Worcestershire

Which fire safety law applies in Worcestershire?

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 sets the duties of the person responsible for fire safety, including emergency lighting where escape routes need it.

How are prices set in Worcestershire?

Our guide prices are adjusted for regional labour costs. After a survey you get a fixed price for the agreed scope.

Can we do the monthly tests ourselves?

Yes. A trained, competent person can do the monthly flick test and record it. Many businesses do this in-house and bring us in for the annual test and repairs.

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.
