Thermal Imaging Electrical Inspections

Thermal imaging is a non-destructive testing method that uses infrared technology to detect variations in temperature in electrical equipment. These temperature variations can indicate issues such as poor connections, overloaded circuits, and damaged components, which can lead to equipment failure or even electrical fires.

During a thermal imaging electrical inspection, a thermal imaging camera is used to capture and display infrared images of the electrical equipment being inspected. These images can show the temperature distribution across the equipment, allowing the inspector to identify areas of concern and pinpoint specific problems.

Thermal imaging Electrical Infrared Inspections can be performed on a wide range of electrical equipment, including switchgear, panels, transformers, motors, and more. It is commonly used by electrician and facility management teams. These inspections are typically scheduled to be performed periodically, such as on yearly or bi-yearly basis, to ensure that the equipment is in good working condition and to identify any potential issues before they become serious problems.

It’s important to note that it is performed by professional who have been trained and certified in the use of thermal imaging cameras and interpretation of thermal images services
