What is Electrical Component Scanning?
Electrical Component Scanning or thermal imaging uses infrared technology to detect anomalies in live and de-energised electrical systems. It helps identify potential problems before they cause prolonged downtime or pose a safety hazard.
How Does Electrical Component Scanning Work?
A thermal imager scans an electrical system for hotspots that may indicate a fault. The thermal image can then be analysed to determine the severity of the problem and whether repairs or replacement is required. The entire process takes minutes and can be done without disrupting the electrical system.
Issues that thermal imaging detects include:
Loose or poor connections
Overheating components
Partially defective breakers
Worn or damaged insulation
Faulty fuses
Corroded electrical contacts
Why Electrical Scanning Should Be Part of Your Maintenance Program
Faulty electrical components are one of the leading causes of downtime and productivity loss in industrial and commercial facilities. In residential properties, electrical fires are also a major concern.
Regularly scanning your electrical system can identify potential problems early and save money on costly repairs. Other benefits include:
Workplace safety – prevent electrical fires and electrocutions
Less downtime – quickly identify and repair faults before they cause downtime
Improved equipment reliability – extend the life of your electrical equipment
Insurance compliance – some insurers require thermal imaging as part of their risk assessment
How Often Should You Scan Your Electrical Equipment?
Inspection frequencies depend on the type of equipment and how critical it is to your operations. We highly recommend scanning critical equipment every three months, essential equipment every six months, and non-essential equipment every year.
