TRAINING: OPERATION AND TESTING OF EXIT SIGNS
HOW TO TEST Visual Test: Visually test the exit sign under normal operating conditions. Under the sign’s casing is an indicator light. When it is connected to building’s electrical supply, the light will be green. Physical Test: Most devices have a “push to test” button located on the casing. Press and hold the test button for 30 seconds. The 30-second minimum is essential for proper testing because even a nearly dead battery will supply several seconds of power. You may see a slight change in the luminosity or brightness. Replace the battery if the exit sign will not stay lit for the required 30-second timeframe.
