What is a flick test?

A flick test is an emergency lighting test also sometimes referred to as a 'flash’ test. A flick test is conducted by temporarily switching off the building’s power and checking whether emergency light fittings (also known as luminaires) remain illuminated or turn on. If the luminaires don’t turn on provide sufficient light, they need to be repaired or in some cases, replaced.

The job will involve travelling around a particular region.

We are recruiting in the West Midlands, Manchester and the North and South East.

What is a duration test?

A duration test is when the batteries for emergency lights are fully drained, to test if emergency lighting would work in the event of an emergency, such as a fire or power cut. Also referred to as a 'battery drainage’, '3 hour drain down’ or 'discharge’ test, it can also help identify if there are any issues with drainage and highlight battery life or if any lighting elements may fail.
