Electrical Switchboard Scanning in Sydney

Electrical switchboards are the main control points for the electricity powering your home and business. Without the proper care and attention, they can become a hazard.

Protect your property from the risks of faulty wiring with electrical switchboard scanning. Schedule routine testing today to ensure your switchboard is up to standard. ​

What Is Electrical Switchboard Scanning?

Electrical switchboard scanning is analysing and locating potential defects in your power system. The data from the scans detect problems before they become hazardous or life-threatening. 

Switchboard scanning allows for proactive maintenance and repair solutions, ultimately saving time, money and resources. Say a loose connection is identified during the scan – it can be fixed immediately rather than waiting for a more severe and costly problem to arise.

The Technology Behind Electrical Switchboard Scanning

Using thermal imaging, a qualified technician detects temperature variations in electrical components. The scanner identifies hot spots, loose connections and other defects that the naked eye cannot see. 

You can get results in seconds by simply pointing the scanner toward the switchboard and squeezing the trigger. Thermal scanning is non-invasive and does not require opening or disassembling the switchboard.
