Safe Installations provide a service of design and installation of all types of emergency lighting and power supply systems and we work to the British Standard BS 5266: Part 1: 2011. All designs fall into one of the following standard recommendation categories:
Non-maintained System (NM2) emergency duration 2 hours. The emergency light units only illuminate in the event of a mains failure.
Maintained System (M3) emergency duration 3 hours. The emergency light units are illuminated at all times using the same lamps for both normal and emergency operation.
Sustained System (S1) emergency duration 1 hour. The emergency light units are fitted with two lamps or two sets of lamps. One of which operates on mains 240V AC supply, the other which operates from the battery supply in the event of mains failure is a non-maintained system with the addition of mains lamps which should be illuminated whenever the premises are occupied.
These are all the minimum requirements, and therefore we can adapt these to fit the spec you require for the environment. All emergency lighting we design operates automatically when the main power supply fails, giving sufficient illumination to enable safe evacuation of the building.
We supply regular inspection and maintenance on all types of lighting systems to ensure that should an emergency occur, everything functions correctly and evacuation can be carried out safely and quickly. The maintenance and testing of emergency lighting is exceptionally important to the safety of a buildings occupants, and is highly regulated to help enable a safe and panic free exit should an emergency occur.
Our customers can always be guaranteed of high quality repairs, maintenance and installation standards which are driven by our commitment to providing the best service possible. All of our engineers are qualified and participate in an ongoing training schedule to meet the regulation requirements. They also go through strict CRB checks so are able to work in education or caring environments.
