Ethos Emergency Lighting Installation Professional Log Book

Professional-Grade Emergency Lighting Installation and Testing Record Book

The Ethos Emergency Lighting Installation Professional Log Book is a purpose-built documentation system designed specifically for electrical professionals managing emergency lighting compliance across commercial and non-domestic properties. Whether you're installing new systems, conducting monthly functional tests, or performing annual 3-hour discharge tests, this log book provides the structured framework needed to meet BS 5266-1 and BS EN 50172 regulatory requirements.

What You Get

This log book includes dedicated sections for:

• Emergency lighting system details – Installation dates, designer specifications, and system configuration information for future reference
• Test switch locations – Clear mapping of where to access control switches and isolation points for reliable testing
• Emergency lighting luminaire locations – Organized inventory of all fixtures and their locations across zones and premises areas
• Emergency lighting fault action records – Space to document failures, corrective actions taken, and completion confirmations

Why This Log Book Matters

Proper documentation isn't optional—it's a legal requirement. Fire safety inspectors expect to see consistent testing records that demonstrate you've completed monthly functional tests and annual full-duration discharge tests. More importantly, the logbook proves you've identified and resolved faults promptly. A5 spiral-bound design with wide columns accommodates multiple engineer signatures, making it ideal for teams conducting tests across different shifts or contractors managing different properties.

Purpose-Built for Compliance

Unlike generic safety books, this log book is specifically designed for emergency lighting scenarios. The layout guides users through what inspectors need to see: test dates, times, fault identification, replacement battery records, and documentation of remedial works. This reduces the risk of incomplete entries and ensures your records withstand scrutiny during fire safety inspections or liability investigations.

Standards Compliance: Meets BS 5266-1: 2016, BS EN 50172:2004, and fulfills Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005 requirements for all non-domestic premises in the UK. Suitable for facilities managers, building owners, electrical contractors, and competent persons responsible for emergency lighting maintenance and testing.
