Supporting individuals to understand the legislations and requirements around fire rated lighting within buildings in order to slow the spread of fire in an emergency. This CPD examines the legislation from England, Scotland and Wales and will detail the areas of a building requiring these fire rated products. The CPD will explain the recommendations of the various codes and how they should be applied to assist compliance with Fire Safety legislation. In this CPD session, we will also examine the detail of 'Fire and Fire Safety - Surface spread of flame TP(a) and TP(b)'. We will explain the room layout restrictions for TP(a) and TP(b) rated products for each region as well as detail the testing procedure and differences between the two. By the end of this CPD seminar, delegates should: 1. Know and understand the regional legislation regarding fire safety in lighting particularly TP(a) and TP(b) rated. 2. Know which areas of a building require such rated products and local legislation around this. 3. Understand layout restrictions regarding the installation of these types of products for each region. 4. Know testing procedures for TP(a) and TP(b) products. 5. Know relevant consulted information and further official documents.

As the demand for smart lighting control solutions in the built environment continues to intensify, the need for buildings to run as safely and cost - effectively as possible whilst ensuring the wellbeing of their occupants is greater than it has ever been. Building operators can now safely monitor and control energy, lighting, use of space, emergency system maintenance and much more. However, for smart lighting to truly fulfil its potential in the commercial space, the most critical challenge to overcome is achieving interoperability. This CPD has been designed to provide guidance for professionals on the true potential of smart lighting, offers an understanding of the different technologies available and looks at the application of smart lighting to new projects.
