I know that fire code requires periodical emergency lights test.
Who regulates what components should be provided for this purpose.
There were some emergency pendant 8ft linear lighting fixture "Coronet lighting" without integral or option for remote test button, electrical contractor says that manufacturer doesn't provide test button for this model. The only way to test the emergency fixtures is to turn-off the breaker in panel.
Since I don't know code reference for test button requirements, I didn't give him any comments on this.
Does anyone know code reference (Building code, etc.) for test button requirements? I think it could be in UL books if the button is considered as part of lighting fixture.
