25. testing PrecaUtions
When the Ektor emergency product is permanently connected to the mains supply you will need to allow
the battery to have 24 hours to charge. Once the battery is fully charged you will need to conduct a manual
discharge test as per the requirements of AS/NZS 2293 or other relevant standards. At the time of printing,
the Australian standard requires that new fittings operate in emergency mode for at least 2 hours for their
first discharge test. Further tests are to be carried out at intervals of not more than six months. It is important
that you keep records of the initial test and ongoing tests in the building’s emergency service logbook. If the
fitting is not to be permanently connected to the mains supply at the time of installation, you must give it the
mandatory 2 hour test when you connect it permanently to the mains supply.
