Emergency Lighting Annual Test
An emergency lighting annual test (full duration test) discharges batteries for the designed autonomy—often three hours—to prove the system still meets BS 5266 performance. iComply plan and execute annual tests for commercial and care premises across the North West, managing risk during discharge and recharging afterwards. Stockport-coordinated teams document results, identify weak batteries and certificate the estate for your compliance year.

We schedule tests to avoid leaving buildings unprotected—often phased by floor or circuit—and restore mains charging promptly. Failed luminaires are listed with locations and quoted for replacement, including LED upgrade options. Combining annual testing with a service inspection maximises engineer efficiency on multi-building portfolios.

Emergency Lighting Annual Test FAQ
Will the annual test leave us in the dark afterwards?+
Batteries need recharge time after a full drain. We phase tests and advise on temporary precautions so risk stays controlled.
How often is a full duration test required?+
BS 5266 expects a periodic full-duration test, commonly annually, plus more frequent function tests.
Do self-test systems still need an engineer annual visit?+
Self-test helps, but many duty holders still engage competent engineers to verify records, inspect fittings and close defects.
