FAQs on Bulkheads

What is an emergency bulkhead light? Open

An emergency bulkhead is a type of wall- or ceiling-mounted light fitting that activates during a power failure. It's designed to provide illumination along escape routes, exits, and open areas for safe evacuation.

What’s the difference between maintained and non-maintained emergency bulkheads? Open

A maintained bulkhead operates continuously and stays on during a power cut, while a non-maintained unit only switches on when the mains power fails. Some models offer dual-mode operation.

Are emergency bulkheads suitable for outdoor use? Open

Many emergency bulkheads are IP-rated for outdoor or damp environments. Check the product specifications for IP65 or higher ratings to ensure water and dust resistance.

Do emergency bulkhead lights require regular testing Open

Yes. UK regulations require monthly functional tests and a full-duration annual discharge test to ensure the emergency lighting system remains operational.
