Electrical Thermal Imaging 

Electrical Thermography is the most widely performed application of IRT (Infra-Red Thermography). It is used to evaluate the condition of electrical systems and equipment. When there is a defect in the system, more heat is generated because of high resistance, and Perth Thermal Imaging’s camera will see the difference between the normal components and the one with a problem. The most effective way to maintain an electrical systems is to identify potential electrical failures before they occur, and then plan the maintenance before an unplanned shutdown occurs.

Electrical faults can occur in any electrical system due to normal use. This even includes correctly designed and protected electrical installations. The faults can occur due to such causes as component failure, resistive heating, corrosion, and loose circuits and equipment.

Perth Thermal Imaging conducts inspections during normal operations of your organisation. This is the only process to ensure that the best results possible are supplied to your organisation. This service is conducted with minimal impact to work being conducted at your location, without the need to shut down or isolate any part of your facilities.

 

Electrical thermal imaging inspections is common practices for preventative maintenance in industrial and commercial facilities. Thermal imaging inspections reduce the downtime for all businesses that apply this preventative maintenance procedure.

Systems All Safe Thermal Imaging technicians provide a professional service that covers a range electrical systems and equipment that thermal imaging will benefit.

An electrical Thermography survey involves taking thermal images of any type of electrical equipment. Our electrical inspections include:

  • Main Switchboards, Disconnects and Motor control panels.
  • Main incoming services, capacitor banks.
  • Main distribution panels and main disconnects
  • Generator controls and transfer switches
  • Lighting and receptacle panels
  • Control cabinet heaters.
  • Leaking current.
  • Load imbalance.
