Same thing jumped into my head initially.Sorry, that is for lighted exit signs, not emergency lighting.
NEC (2017) Section 410.6 requires that luminaires be listed, but not necessarily by UL.
If I can reach the test switch with a broomstick it is not too high, if it lights up with the test switch operated it is good, hold the switch for a count of ten it will probably last, if they are 5 years old they probably need batteries or replaced.
do you check light fixture for listing?
on the initial install that is what we do, inspect the building with the E lights on, also good time to check the Fire Alarm batteries and system, better even at night for big buildingWhen possible I have them trip the lighting circuit rather than use the test button. Then I walk the space. I don't check for listings or paperwork unless there is a compelling reason to do so.
So do you require emergency lights to be tested/ listed by someone??
If so what code section do you cite
Who uses the NEC for testing the emergency lights? Does your electrical inspector do a separate inspection?
