If your business operates from a commercial or public building, it’s essential to have a safe and clearly marked evacuation path in case of an emergency. Emergency and exit lighting is critical during power outages, electrical failures, or fire events. It helps guide people to safety and reduces panic during evacuations.
At Jim’s Test & Tag, we provide expert emergency and exit light testing services to help Australian businesses stay compliant and ensure the safety of their staff, customers, and visitors on a daily basis and during emergencies. Our trained technicians conduct thorough on-site inspections to make sure your lighting systems work reliably when needed most.
Stay Compliant with Regular Emergency Lighting Tests
Under Australian Standard AS/NZS 2293.2, all emergency and exit lights in commercial and public buildings must be tested every six months. This includes a 90-minute discharge test that simulates a power failure to confirm that your emergency lights remain operational for the required time.
In addition to the discharge test, our inspections also assess battery health, physical condition of fittings, and light output levels to ensure every device meets requirements. Keeping accurate compliance records is also critical. These should be updated after every service and readily available for audits or regulatory inspections.
Our team identifies any faults and replaces damaged globes or components as required. Staying on top of your testing schedule is not just a compliance obligation, it’s a critical safety measure that helps minimise risk in emergency situations.
