Reduce Costs, Downtime, Failures and Equipment Damage
Thermal imaging has evolved into one of the most valuable diagnostic tools for Predictive Maintenance. By detecting anomalies often invisible to the naked eye, thermography allows corrective action to be taken before costly system failures occur.
Infrared Electrical Inspection
- Pinpoints Hot Spots in Electrical Systems
- Reduces Down Time – Increases Profits
- Substantially Reduces Unscheduled Outages and Losses
Today’s facilities engineers are saving of millions of dollars every year with infrared electrical surveys. An infrared electrical scan can substantially improve profitability and reduce your operating, testing and maintenance costs by:
- quickly pinpointing problems
- reducing downtime and equipment damage
- preventing catastrophic failures
- establishing repair priorities
- improving preventive maintenance efficiency
- testing under load to avoid costly shutdowns
In electrical systems, excessive heat is a sign of impending trouble. High temperatures indicate excessive electrical resistance, failing components, ground faults, short circuits or other common problems in electric equipment that can lead to expensive or even catastrophic failures. Trying to find these incipient failures with visual and manual inspections is a costly, time-consuming process that may not locate the underlying problems.
Recommended by the National Fire Protection Association and the International Electrical Testing Association.
"...infrared inspection programs have proven that on average for every $1 spent on infrared electrical inspections, there is a $4 return on investment for materials and labor from fixing the problems before it fails."

Using cutting-edge infrared detection technology, our Certified Thermographers rapidly and accurately pinpoint the thermal anomalies that threaten the safety and reliability of your electrical systems.
Thousands of points can be tested in a single day. In a matter of hours, our electrical infrared testing can develop a complete catalog of the hidden thermal stresses in your operating equipment.
Because thermography is non-contact and nondestructive, there is no need to interrupt production or plan for costly shutdowns. Our thermographers inspect your equipment under normal loads and operating conditions, so you don’t have to disrupt your service and production schedules. By performing an infrared scan of your electrical system in ‘real time’ our inspections can help you understand the practical impacts of emerging component problems
