The BBA series is designed to simulate the 90 minute load test. BUT, Section 7.9.3.1.1 (4) of NFPA101 states the following:
“The emergency lighting equipment shall be fully operational for the duration of the tests required by 7.9.3.1.1 (1) and 7.9.3.1.1 (2).”
The purpose of the Annual Test ( 90 minute load) is to ensure the entire unit is functioning properly, not just the battery.
