Exit and Emergency Lighting for Auckland Buildings
When the power fails, emergency lights and exit signs show people the way out. The Conduction Company installs, tests, and repairs exit and emergency lighting across Auckland, including the testing for buildings with a building warrant of fitness.
Are You Experiencing Problems with Emergency Lighting?
Emergency lighting only matters on the one night the power goes out, which is why failed fittings go unnoticed until a test finds them. An exit sign has gone dark, emergency lights fail their test, and batteries no longer last on test. Testing is overdue with a building warrant of fitness coming up, a fitout needs emergency lighting before it opens, council is asking for a producer statement for the installation, old fittings are reaching the end of their life, and nobody is sure when the lights were last tested.
The Conduction Company installs and tests exit and emergency lighting, replaces what fails, and works with the fire companies and IQPs who certify it for the building warrant of fitness.
Exit and Emergency Lighting Services
The Conduction Company installs, tests, and repairs exit and emergency lighting in Auckland buildings, and organises the ongoing certification for a building warrant of fitness. The certification itself is completed by a subcontracted IQP company, and the testing and electrical work it relies on are done in house.
Who installs, tests, and certifies exit and emergency lighting?
The Conduction Company installs, tests, and repairs exit and emergency lighting, and provides the producer statement for an installation.
The certification for a building warrant of fitness is not The Conduction Company's. It comes from the IQP (independently qualified person) company we bring in. We organise the IQP, and do the testing and the electrical work their certification relies on.
Emergency lighting and exit sign installation
The Conduction Company installs emergency lights and exit signs in commercial buildings, for new fitouts, upgrades, and replacements.
Emergency lighting is wiring, batteries, and fittings. We use registered electricians for the electrical work, and certify it when it is done.
When council asks for one, we also provide the producer statement for the installation.
When a fit-out moves the walls, The Conduction Company sets out what happens to the exit and emergency lights in its office fit-out guide.
What is an emergency lighting discharge test?
A discharge test checks that each emergency light and exit sign keeps running on battery power, as it would in a power cut. The Conduction Company does all emergency light testing, including the discharge test.
AS/NZS 2293.1 notes that during and just after a discharge test, a building may be without effective emergency lighting while the batteries recharge. So we time the testing around how your building is used, including outside trading hours.
Who tests emergency lighting for a building warrant of fitness?
The Conduction Company does emergency lighting testing on commercial buildings that need a building warrant of fitness, including for fire companies, who bring it in to do their emergency light testing.
We work with trusted fire companies and IQPs. For the warrant of fitness, we bring in the IQP company to produce the certification, and organise the whole job. The certification is theirs, not ours.
What happens when an emergency light fails its test?
A fitting that fails its test needs fixing before the next one. The Conduction Company replaces failed emergency lights, exit signs, and batteries.
We install the fittings, test them, and replace what fails, so the testing and the repair come from one company.
The Conduction Company replaced the emergency lighting in a central Auckland apartment building, and every fitting passed a 90-minute test.
Can you have emergency lights in a house?
Yes. The Conduction Company fits recessed emergency downlights in houses, for example over a stairwell, where they light the way out when the power fails.
Emergency lighting is not only for commercial buildings. It is especially good where elderly people live.
What affects the cost of emergency lighting?
The Conduction Company quotes emergency lighting after knowing what is on site. The cost depends on:
- how many fittings and exit signs there are
- how old they are, and how hard they are to reach
- whether it is a new installation or ongoing testing
- whether the work has to happen outside trading hours
We quote on facts, not guesses. Before we give you a price, we carry out a proper assessment of your property and how you'll use the emergency lighting. That way you know exactly what you're buying and the total cost, with no surprises. Clear expectations from the outset, start to finish.

Frequently Asked Questions
Do you do the ongoing testing, or only installation?
Both. The Conduction Company installs exit and emergency lighting and does all emergency light testing, including for fire companies on buildings with a building warrant of fitness.
Can you help with our building warrant of fitness?
Yes, on the emergency lighting. The Conduction Company does the testing and the repairs, and works with the trusted fire companies and IQPs who produce the certification.
Do you provide a producer statement?
For an installation, yes. The Conduction Company provides the producer statement for an emergency lighting installation when council asks for one as part of a building consent. For the ongoing building warrant of fitness, it organises the certification from start to finish, and the certification itself is completed by the IQP company it subcontracts.
Which standard covers emergency lighting?
AS/NZS 2293.1 covers the design and installation of emergency lighting and exit signs. It leaves maintenance to AS/NZS 2293.2, and it does not decide which buildings need emergency lighting in the first place. The Conduction Company installs and tests emergency lighting and works with the IQPs who certify it.
