Infrared Electrical Thermography – Predictive Fault Detection for Safer, More Efficient Operations

See the unseen with infrared thermography.

Infrared Electrical Thermography, also known as an IR Scan, is a powerful preventative maintenance tool used in facility management to detect electrical faults before they lead to costly breakdowns or fires. By using advanced infrared imaging, we identify “hot spots” in electrical equipment, including
DB Board Thermal
DB Boards
mcc panel Thermal
MCC Panels
lt substation Thermal
LT Substations
transformer Thermal
Transformers

What Is Infrared Electrical Thermography?

Infrared thermography measures heat signatures from electrical components under load. As circuits, breakers, or connections begin to stress or degrade, they emit excess heat invisible to the naked eye. Our IR scans capture these temperature variations, providing early warning signs of potential failures and supporting effective preventative maintenance planning.

Key Benefits of Infrared Electrical Surveys

Detects Faults Early: Identifies loose connections, overloaded circuits, and stressed components.
Prevents Downtime: Predict issues before they cause outages or shutdowns.
Enhances Safety: Reduces the risk of electrical fires and equipment damage.
Optimises Maintenance: Guides planned maintenance efforts for maximum cost-efficiency.
Non-Intrusive Testing: Scans performed under normal operating conditions without interruption.
