Emergency lights are used to light the way to the escape routes, in case of a fire or other emergency. They are designed to illuminate in the event of a loss of power for either 1 or 3 hours (depending on type installed). Emergency lights guidance can be found in British Standard BS5266-1:2016.
Emergency lights should have a discharge test carried out by a competent person at a minimum of once per year. This involves turning the main lights off at the breaker, then allowing the lights to drain down fully and then recharge. This also ensures the battery gets a workout and doesn't degrade.
