As winter approaches and we see less daylight, it’s important now more than ever to prioritise your electrics to prevent any possible electrical or lighting faults. Read on to find out what you should be checking for and the ways in which you can ensure your workplace remains safe and compliant.
Emergency lighting effectivity
Don’t rely on an emergency to make you check that your lighting is working. It is important to ensure your emergency lighting is operating effectively for work continuity or in worst-case scenarios, safe evacuation of staff and/or public. Therefore, undergoing emergency lighting tests will ensure that everything is working properly, and the back-up battery is in full working order.
Electrical safety
Employees will be working in darker conditions, meaning all necessary areas will need to be safe and well-lit to avoid any possible hazards. The likeliness of a power cut due to faulty electrics will also need to be diminished, to not only improve safety but also to avoid any unnecessary down time.
Now is the best time to have an inspection carried out on your electrical supplies, before the clocks go back, and weather worsens. We carry out electrical installations as well as electrical inspection services following the standards to identify any deterioration, damage, defects and dangerous conditions that contravene with BS 7671 regulations.
Lighting inconsistencies
Poor lighting can be deemed a safety hazard and there may be areas of your site that are lacking sufficient brightness. While this may not be as much of a priority during the lighter months than what it is now, we would advise getting those defects checked and resolved.
Also, there is a seasonal surge of business robberies in the winter months as criminals see the darker nights and the same can be a shining opportunity. Improve the longevity of your working space and securely illuminate those areas to ensure break ins do not occur with up-to-date security systems.
