In Australia, it is mandatory for every occupied building to have adequate lighting so that the occupants can evacuate the premises safely in the event of fire or power outage. Also, all emergency lighting and exit signs need to be inspected every six months to ensure that they are in excellent working condition. Whether you own a large commercial building, a small retail store or an apartment building in Campbellfield, you can count on Australia Fire Protection Group for your exit and emergency lighting test and repair needs. Having been in the industry for many years, we are helping businesses in Campbellfield to be compliant with Australian Building Code.
What Is Included In Emergency & Exit Light Testing?
According to the Australian Standards AS2293, the emergency lighting and exit signs must stay illuminated at least for a period of 90 minutes if power fails. To ensure that your emergency lighting system complies with this statute, we simulate power cut and check that all of your lights stay on for the stipulated time period. In addition, we will also discharge the batteries 6-monthly or annually as required, which will help extending the life of your emergency lighting system.
Let’s Make Your Emergency Lighting Compliant!
If we notice any issues on the working order of the fire safety lighting system during the inspection, we will advise on the measures needed to make them compliant. Upon your approval, we can also have the issues fixed quickly, neglecting the need for second visit. Finally, we also provide you with an unbiased report that includes the test result for each device we checked.

Frequently Asked Question – FAQs
1. What types of Campbellfield buildings commonly need emergency exit light testing?
Campbellfield is home to a large concentration of warehouses, distribution centres, and industrial facilities alongside retail and commercial properties — all of which are legally required to maintain compliant emergency lighting under AS2293. Large industrial sites often have more exit points and larger floor areas to cover, so AFP Groups tailors the testing scope to your building’s actual layout rather than a one-size-fits-all visit.
2. How quickly can AFP Groups reach a Campbellfield site for testing or repairs?
Campbellfield sits close to our Thomastown base, so we’re well positioned to service the area promptly — including faster turnaround on urgent repairs where a failed test needs same-visit resolution rather than a follow-up appointment.
3. Do warehouses and industrial facilities in Campbellfield have different emergency lighting needs to a standard office?
The 90-minute illumination requirement under AS2293 applies regardless of building type, but larger industrial and logistics facilities in Campbellfield typically require more exit and emergency light points to adequately cover loading docks, warehouse floors, and multiple exits — which is factored into how we scope and price a testing visit.
4. Do I need an evacuation diagram as well as exit light testing for a Campbellfield property?
Yes — they cover different requirements. Exit light testing ensures your building has functioning emergency lighting during a power outage, while an evacuation diagram (required under AS3745:2010) gives occupants a clear visual guide to exits and assembly points, which is especially important for larger Campbellfield sites with multiple access routes. AFP Groups provides both as part of a complete compliance package.
5. Can AFP Groups manage testing across multiple buildings in a Campbellfield industrial estate?
Yes. Many of our Campbellfield clients operate across several units or buildings within the same industrial estate, and we coordinate testing schedules across multiple sites so compliance dates line up and inspections can be batched into fewer visits — reducing disruption compared to booking each building separately.
