Electrical Inspections
Thermal Techniques electrical inspection can help shine a light on what even a simple cleaning can never show. Visually the picture below to the left appears to be quite normal, clean and in good condition. However, the photo on the right (the same fuses to the left) reveals the electrical unit is at high risk in excess of 200°F.
We refer to this as an opportunity for improvement that can save you unexpected losses and interruption of production. Our certified Infrared Thermographer points this out during the survey as well as explains thoroughly the findings in a detailed report sent soon after. Our infrared inspection service of your facility will allow you to find the problems that you have before they find you. Performed regularly, infrared inspections can help to identify incipient equipment failures.
According to the National Fire Protection Association, “infrared inspections should be preformed at least once a year.”

Infrared Thermal Imaging can be an invaluable resource in the assessment of your electrical systems. Consider what the technology may uncover for you:
- Faults in power distribution systems that can be related to increases in resistance or current, load imbalance, and harmonic currents.
- Loose cable connections, failing circuit breakers, degradation of insulation, corrosion, bad contacts in breakers and disconnects, as well as electrical structure failures.
