Why Choose Volt Pro Electrical for Your Exit & Emergency Lighting Needs
Full compliance with Australian Standards
All our work adheres to AS/NZS 2293 for design, installation, operation, testing, and maintenance. This ensures your system meets legal obligations and will pass any inspection or audit.
Custom design & strategic placement
We assess your building’s layout, evacuation routes, occupancy levels, lighting conditions, and potential obstructions to determine where exit signs and emergency lighting are most effective. This helps avoid blind spots, ensures visibility from all escape paths, and minimises confusion in emergencies.
Reliable emergency illumination
Our installations include battery-backed or self-contained emergency luminaires that automatically activate during power outages, with a minimum of 90 minutes of operation – meeting or exceeding regulatory requirements.

We use long-life LED fittings, quality components, and robust sign materials to reduce maintenance, lower energy costs, and ensure signage stays visible and legible over time.

Emergency lighting systems must meet AS/NZS 2293 parts 1 through 3. They must provide at least 90 minutes illumination during power failure. Tests include monthly inspections, 6-monthly duration/discharge tests, and annual comprehensive checks. Records/logbooks must be maintained.
Some buildings fail compliance due to obstructed or poorly visible exit signs, outdated symbols or signage, lack of battery backup, or failure to test and maintain equipment properly. Also, emergency lights mounted too low or too far apart may not provide adequate illumination.
