Experiencing emergency lighting failures? Our Wigan-based team reaches properties throughout The North West within hours.

Regular testing of emergency lighting systems helps prevent unexpected failures when you need these systems most.

Our Relec electricians provide thorough emergency lighting testing services that go beyond basic checks.

We examine battery health, charging circuits, automatic activation systems, and light output levels to ensure total compliance with BS 5266 standards.

For commercial properties, we offer documented test certificates that satisfy insurance requirements and building regulations.

Homeowners benefit from our same professional approach, giving peace of mind that backup lighting will function during power cuts or emergencies.

Prevention beats emergency repairs every time.

Our planned maintenance programmes for emergency lighting systems help businesses and homeowners avoid the stress of sudden failures.

We schedule routine visits to inspect, test and service all components of your emergency lighting setup.

This includes battery replacement before failures occur, cleaning of light fittings for maximum brightness, and verification of switching mechanisms.

Our maintenance contracts are especially popular with commercial clients who need documented evidence of safety compliance, but many Wigan homeowners also choose this option for their backup lighting systems.

How quickly can you respond to emergency lighting failures?

For commercial properties with safety compliance issues, we typically arrive within 2-4 hours. Residential emergency lighting repairs are usually completed same-day or next morning depending on call time and urgency.

What causes most emergency lighting failures?

Battery degradation accounts for approximately 70% of failures. Other common causes include charging circuit faults, damaged light fittings, and improper installation by unqualified electricians.

Do you provide temporary emergency lighting during repairs?

Yes, for commercial properties where continuous emergency lighting coverage is legally required, we can install temporary battery-powered units while permanent repairs are completed.

How often should emergency lighting systems be tested?

Monthly function tests and annual full-duration tests are recommended for all properties. Commercial buildings must maintain testing records to demonstrate regulatory compliance.

Can you upgrade our outdated emergency lighting system?

Absolutely. We specialise in converting older emergency lighting to modern LED systems with improved battery life, brightness and reliability – often reducing long-term maintenance costs.

Do you handle both standalone and integrated emergency lighting systems?

Yes, our electricians in Wigan are fully qualified to work on both dedicated emergency lighting units and integrated fittings with emergency backup functions in standard lighting circuits.
