How often should emergency lighting lamps be changed?

Featured Replies

How often should we replace the lamps inside emergency lights?

Thanks

When ever you become aware a lamp has blown, in a maintained system this should be immediately but in a non maintained it most probably will be during the monthly test. I am not aware of any routine replacement recommended.

Hi

Our supplier of emergency lights, Ringtail, recommends that lamps in maintained bulkheads are changed every six months. The longevity of emergency lights is better if lamps are changed before they are fully failing. However, this recomendation probably only applies if your organisation has a contractor for the maintenance of your emergency lighting and the costs of a call-out were to be substantial. In such a case pre-emptive maintenance (changing while the light is still working) makes sense.
