Why Thermal Imaging is necessary on electrical systems?

Electrical thermal imaging is the most established application for thermography. It is useful as there are no other preventive maintenance technologies or techniques that can identify defects such as poor connections, over loaded cables and faulty electrical equipment as safely and as quickly, whilst causing no interruption to the normal operation of your business.

Thermal Imaging Survey Approach and Reporting Structure

Our survey approach has been tailored over many years to ensure thermal imaging inspections are carried out safely and non-intrusively, causing no disruption to business operations whilst providing a full audit trail of the health of the equipment that has been inspected.

Working with insurance companies, safety risk assessors and Engineering Maintenance Managers, our thermal imaging survey reports have been developed to satisfy strict standards ensuring that expectations from the thermal imaging inspection and survey report are fully met.

All thermal imaging survey reports are reviewed and approved by UKTA Approved Thermographers and are structured as follows:

  1. Introduction/Report Summary – This provides detail on the survey carried out together a top level summary of the overall findings.
  2. Main Body Report Pages – Where faults/anomalies are identified, an individual report page is produced providing a description of the fault, its severity and recommended remedial action.
  3. Appendices – These pages provide a checklist and images of every asset inspected during the survey. This provides an auditable record of what was inspected, together with equipment health at the time of the survey.

Please contact us if you have any questions or would like a sample report.
