Straight to the point: Do maintained emergency exit lighting signs have to be lit all the time.

Yes

Maintained - On all the time (when the building is occupied)

Non Maintained - Only illuminated if power is cut

NO - if battery back up they will not be illuminated until the power goes off.

We have a combination of light on and light off.

Maintained Emergency Lighting
This type remains illuminated and works normally via the mains, should the mains fail batteries will keep the unit illuminated for at least 1 – 3hours.

Non-maintained Emergency Light
This type is not ordinarily illuminated, but will automatically illuminate should mains power fail
