About High Risk Task Area Lighting
High-risk task area emergency lighting provides higher illuminance where dangerous processes or equipment must be made safe during a supply failure. Icomply design and install high-risk task area emergency lighting across Greater Manchester and the North West in line with BS 5266 principles. From Stockport we work with plant managers and duty holders to identify tasks that cannot simply stop in the dark—then engineer practical emergency cover.
Examples include certain plant rooms, kitchens with hot processes, workshops and control points where residual hazards exist after mains loss. We assess tasks with the client, set appropriate emergency light levels and duration, and choose robust fittings that survive the environment. Integration with emergency stop strategies and fire procedures matters as much as lux figures. Testing regimes should prove that task lighting still hits the required level, not merely that an LED indicator is green. Documentation explains why higher levels were specified so future alterations do not quietly remove critical heads.

High Risk Task Area Lighting FAQ
How do I know if I need high-risk task emergency lighting?+
If a power cut leaves a hazardous task unfinished—hot oil, moving machinery, chemical processes—higher emergency lighting may be required. We assess with your team and FRA.
Is high-risk task lighting the same as normal escape lighting?+
No. It typically demands higher illuminance focused on the task area, beyond basic escape route levels.
Can you add task emergency lighting to an existing system?+
Yes. We can supplement existing escape lighting with additional heads or conversions targeted at the risk points.
