Why BS 5266 Compliance Matters
Emergency lighting failure during an evacuation is a serious legal and safety risk for your business
Legal Requirement
The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires all non-domestic premises to have adequate emergency escape lighting covering all escape routes.
Safe Evacuation
During a power failure or fire, emergency lighting must activate instantly and maintain illumination for 1–3 hours to allow safe evacuation of the building.
Fire Authority Compliance
Fire authority inspectors specifically check emergency lighting compliance and can serve enforcement notices or close premises for non-compliance.
Insurance Requirements
Buildings and liability insurers require evidence of BS 5266 compliant emergency lighting with maintained test records.
Regular Testing
Monthly function tests and annual 3-hour duration tests are legally required and must be recorded in a dedicated logbook.
LED Upgrades
Modern LED emergency luminaires offer significantly longer battery life, lower maintenance costs and improved lux output over older fluorescent systems.
