School and education lighting work in Lincolnshire
We plan Lincolnshire school projects around half-terms and the summer holiday, with sports halls and corridors first.
Schools in Lincolnshire are often lit for long days plus evening lettings, so LED and corridor sensors pay back faster than in many offices.
What's included
- Classroom LED panels with good uniformity and low glare
- Corridor and toilet presence detection
- External and car park lighting
- Holiday-period programmes and DBS-aware site practices

Rules that apply in Lincolnshire
Fire safety duties for premises in Lincolnshire come from the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005. Whoever is responsible for fire safety must make sure escape routes are lit if the normal supply fails, and that the system is tested and maintained.
Approved Document L (2021 edition, with 2023 amendments) asks for new general lighting to average at least 95 luminaire lumens per circuit-watt, or to use the LENI method. The 2026 edition raises this to more than 105 for work under it from 24 March 2027.
In Great Britain, common T8 fluorescent tubes were caught by ecodesign rules from 1 September 2023 and the mercury exemptions for ordinary T5 and T8 lamps ended on 1 February 2024.
