BS 5266-1 — Testing & Inspection Schedule

The Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requires all non-domestic premises to maintain and document compliance. BS 5266-1 sets out the required testing schedule:

MONTHLY

Brief function test — simulate mains failure, confirm all fittings illuminate, restore mains. Record in logbook.

6-MONTHLY

1-hour duration test — simulate mains failure for 1 hour, verify all fittings remain illuminated throughout.

ANNUAL

Full 3-hour duration test by competent person — lux levels checked, exit signs verified, defects repaired. Certificate issued.

ON CHANGE

Full system survey whenever building layout changes, new tenancy, or after any modification to escape routes.

Your local fire authority carries out routine inspections. Non-compliant records and missing certificates result in enforcement notices.

FireJet provides emergency lighting design, installation, testing and maintenance across City of London and the wider Greater London area. Our engineers ensure your emergency escape lighting meets BS 5266-1 and satisfies the inspection standards of London Fire Brigade, keeping your premises compliant and your occupants safe.

Under the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, all non-domestic premises in City of London must have adequate emergency lighting that illuminates escape routes if the normal lighting fails. This requires monthly short-duration tests and an annual full-duration test, both documented in your fire safety logbook. Our certified engineers carry out both, issuing compliance certificates and logbook entries after every visit — essential evidence for London Fire Brigade inspections and insurance audits.

We install and maintain emergency lighting for every type of City of London premises — including offices, retail units, restaurants and hospitality venues, care homes, schools, industrial units and heritage buildings. LED emergency lighting upgrades are available to reduce maintenance costs and improve reliability, and same-day fault call-out is available across all local postcodes.
