INTRODUCTION
Emergency lighting systems are a safety related product; their correct performance can only
be assured by systematic testing and maintenance. Conventional techniques for testing are
reliant upon manual testing procedures, and are highly susceptible to neglect. These
limitations of conventional techniques can be overcome by automating the testing process. It
is essential that automatic testing systems for emergency luminaires schedule tests reliably,
and provide timely notification of failures or degradation of performance.
Automatic test systems (ATSs) will still require manual intervention to correct faults when they
are identified, and procedures should be put in place for such intervention. These systems
provide information to assist users to manage risk on their premises.
Automatic test systems for emergency escape lighting assist the operator of the building by
showing the results of tests that will have been made at prescribed intervals, without
disrupting any other electrical services. It is essential that the notification of failures or
reduction in performance be given at the earliest opportunity to enable the emergency escape
system to be restored to full operation.
The automatic test system will provide those responsible for an emergency lighting installation
with information to enable them to ensure that the installed luminaires operate correctly when
required.
The automatic test system maybe part of a Building Management System (BMS) for making
the emergency lighting tests; this standard would only apply to the emergency lighting testing
part of a BMS.
A visual check of system components and indicators should be included in the routine of
safety staff. This check should be made regularly to ensure that the emergency luminaire is
present and intact, with lamps and indicators working and visible i.e. not obscured, covered or
painted.

In the installation instructions, manufacturers shall advise the type of emergency luminaires
for which the ATS is designed.
NOTE 2 The ATSs are classified according to what they can provide to the user (see Annex B).
NOTE 3 Test circuit components may be installed within or adjacent to either self-contained or centrally powered
luminaires. Additional components may be located in a remote panel.
4.2 Monitoring of the timing circuit
In the case of P, ER and PER ATS types(see Annex B) any failure of the progress of the test
sequence of the ATS shall be indicated on the remote panel.
NOTE 1 The monitoring of the timing circuit is essential as the duration of testing periods and the intervals
between them need to be ensured and maintained.
This failure shall be tested by simulating a fault that interrupts the progress of the test
sequence, and checking that the failure is indicated on the remote panel.
NOTE 2 All luminaires of the system are affected by the failure of the timing circuit.
4.3 Functional requirements
4.3.1 The automatic test system (ATS)
The ATS shall check the functional operation of the emergency lighting luminaires and
associated power supplies, at intervals and for the duration specified in Clause 5, to identify
any faults that would impair their operational duty. Any faults shall be indicated or reported
within 24 h after their detection.
Compliance is checked by inspection and prescribed test (see Clause 5).
4.3.2 Emergency battery supply
The test system shall check and indicate if the emergency battery supply has failed.
Compliance is checked by disconnecting the battery during the test sequence – a fault shall
be indicated within the test period.
4.3.3 Lamps tested in the emergency mode
The test system shall check that any changeover device, where fitted, has powered the lamp
from the emergency battery supply.
Compliance is checked as follows:
• if the charge rate to the battery is higher than 15 % of the full load, the charger shall be
disconnected during the test;
• if the charge rates is between 5 % and 15 % of the full load, the charger shall be
compensated during the test;
• if the charge rate is less than 5 % of the full load, the charger should be ignored during the
test.

(on line system, as defined in Clause 17 of IEC 60598-2-22), the test system shall check that
the lamp operates correctly in both the normal mains supply and failed supply conditions.
NOTE Maintained luminaires with a changeover device may be tested according to 4.3.3.
Compliance is checked by inspection of the test system when the maintained lamps are
operating.
4.4 Protection against system part failures and faults
Any single fault or part-failure that occurs in the ATS, or within one of the system parts, shall
not affect the emergency operation of the ATS, in accordance with the requirements of 4.4.1
to 4.4.5.
Compliance is checked by inspection and the requirements of 4.4.1 to 4.4.5.
4.4.1 Intercommunications failure
Any failure of intercommunication between ATS parts, as defined in 3.3 and 3.4, shall not
inhibit the emergency operation of the luminaires connected to the ATS, or initiate an
unwanted test. Furthermore, in the case P, ER and PER ATS types(see Annex B) any failure
of intercommunication between ATS parts shall be indicated as a fault on the remote panel
within one month of the failure occurring.
Compliance is checked by simulation of failure of inter-communication and checking the fault
indicator.
4.4.2 System interconnection
The operation of luminaires in the emergency mode shall not be affected by any faults in the
wiring of the interconnections of the ATS, including a short circuit, contacts to earth or an
interruption in the wiring of the ATS supply or communications wiring. No unwanted test shall
be inititiated. The test must only operate at correct times; other tests would put the system’s
emergency duty at risk.
Compliance is checked by simulation of these wiring faults to the ATS
NOTE Short circuit connections between supply and communications wiring are not included in the test if they are
separated by double insulation.
4.4.3 Component failures
The failure of any single part within the ATS shall not inhibit the emergency operation of more
than one of the luminaires connected to the ATS, or initiate an unwanted test.
The ATS shall be tested by introducing part failures into the ATS in accordance with 14.1 to
14.4 of IEC 61347-1.
NOTE For complex systems and devices it may be appropriate to seek the advice of the control gear
manufacturers with respect to selection of the internal parts that are most likely to cause a failure against the
requirements of this test.

62034 IEC:2006 – 19 –
4.4.4 System parts compatibility
The individual parts, control gear and other electronic devices selected to form an ATS shall
be proven to be compatible with each other.
It shall be the responsibility of the system designer to conduct sufficient investigations and
operational trials to ensure ATS component compatibility.
NOTE Conformity of individual parts against the requirements of relevant IEC or regional standards cannot be
relied on to completely ensure compatibility in this instance. EMC, voltage transfer, switching phenomena, etc.
should be considered.
4.4.5 Electromagnetic immunity of the ATS
Electromagnetic phenomena shall not inhibit operation of the ATS or initiate an unwanted test.
Compliance is checked by the tests of IEC 61547 applying the requirements and compliance
criteria for emergency lighting luminaires.
In addition, the supply voltage dips and interruptions tests shall be conducted in accordance
with 5.8 of IEC 61547. During testing, operation of the ATS shall not be affected, and no
unwanted tests shall be initiated.
NOTE In some countries, compliance with electromagnetic immunity may not be required.
4.4.6 Software failure
The correct operation of ATS software shall be proven.
It shall be the responsibility of the system designer to conduct sufficient investigations and
operational trials to ensure the correct operation of software and failure protection.
Any software failure shall not inhibit the emergency operation of more than one of the
luminaires connected to the system, and shall not initiate an unwanted test.
4.5 Test of emergency lamp(s)
The ATS shall check and indicate if the emergency lamp(s) do not operate. In the case of P,
ER and PER ATS types (see Annex B) the indication shall be on the remote panel. For S ATS
systems the indication shall be on the luminaire
Compliance is checked by:
a) removal of the emergency incandescent lamp during test; and
b) the fault conditions of IEC 60598-1, Annex C during the test, for fluorescent and discharge
lamps.
A fault indication shall be given on the remote panel in either case.
