Electrical Inspections

Why do you need an Electrical Inspection?

Companies historically have lost thousands of pounds in production down time caused by electrical failure.

The Electricity at Work Regulations of 1989 requires a “Duty of Care” on landlords and employers to maintain electrical systems to prevent danger.

Thermal imaging quickly pinpoints potential electrical failures preventing any interruption to your business productivity along with meeting your legal obligations.

An electrical survey will highlight any potential problems:

• Key components.
• Electrical distribution system.  
• Overloaded electrical cables.
• Electrical defects.
• Faulty electrical equipment.

What’s Involved in an Electrical Thermal Imaging Survey?

All surveys are carried out by our engineers who are all qualified electricians and thermography certified, with some certified to the top level 3 qualification.

The survey is a non evasive and non-destructive process using infrared technology which can be used on a wide range of equipment including:

• Distribution boards and fuse boards.
• High voltage systems.
• Control panels.
• Busbar systems.
• Batteries.
• UPS systems.
• Transformers.
• Switchgears and switchboards. 

Predictive Electrical Maintenance

Infrared technology is now an accepted and successful method of predicting potential electrical failure allowing immediate repairs to be carried out on emergency repairs with pre planned maintenance for less urgent work. An increasing number of companies are now relying on thermal imaging to ensure continuity of production and minimising any down time and reducing the risk of fire.

Thermal Image surveys are used on:

• High voltage equipment.
• Low voltage equipment.
• High temperature equipment.
• Motors.
• Pumps.
