Why SHP Electrical Contracting
Emergency lighting provides essential visibility during emergencies such as fires when main power is cut and normal illumination fails. It activates automatically to ensure occupants can safely evacuate the premises.
Properly functioning emergency lighting is not only critical for building fire safety and the protection of staff and visitors, but its maintenance is a legal requirement. Failure to maintain and test these systems at least annually places the duty holder in breach of the law and potentially liable for serious consequences.
