Exit & Emergency Lighting Inspections

Fire Protection Services in Grand Rapids, MI

In the event of a fire emergency, having properly maintained exit and emergency lighting can prevent many from being injured and provide a clear, safe escape route. The lights are designed to illuminate corridors, stairwells, ramps, escalators, aisles, and exit passageways. During the hecticness and confusion of a fire, the darkness and smoke can make it difficult to see where the exits are. It is critically important that your exit and emergency lighting signs are regularly inspected.

The Emergency Lighting Inspection Process

Many times, emergency lights are often overlooked until an emergency, and by then, it is too late. Emergency lighting maintenance is required by NFPA Standard No. 101, Section 1.3.7, which states:

“A functional test shall be conducted on every required emergency lighting system at 30-day intervals for a minimum of 30 seconds. An annual test shall be conducted for the 1 1/2 hour duration. Equipment shall be fully operational for the duration of the test. Written records of visual inspections and tests shall be kept by the owner for inspection by the authority having jurisdiction.”

Our emergency lighting inspection process includes:

• Inspecting units for proper installation and secure mounting.
• Inspecting for correct location and quantity of lights for occupancy.
• Performing load test of batteries with electronic load simulators.
• Verifying proper charging voltage of units.
• Inspecting bulbs for proper operation and illumination.
• Testing in place utilizing the built-in test switch that simulates a power outage.

Jurisdictions require a 90-minute discharge test per NFPA that can be provided at an additional cost. If a safety issue comes up during the exit and emergency lighting inspection, we offer battery and bulb replacement.
