WHAT A SCAN CAN COVER

Look for heat where it matters.

Infrared imaging can show temperature differences in energized electrical equipment. The scope depends on your equipment, access and operating conditions.

Electrical panels

Review accessible panel components for unusual heat patterns that may warrant closer assessment or corrective work.

Switchgear and disconnects

Include switchgear or disconnects where the equipment and safe access make thermal imaging practical.

Transformers and bus ducts

Inspect agreed equipment for temperature differences, with the operating load and equipment configuration considered.

Motor control centres

Review accessible motor control equipment as part of a defined commercial or industrial scan.

PLAN THE SCOPE

Start with equipment and operating conditions.

Thermal imaging is most useful when the scan scope is clear.

Planning a useful thermal scan

How should I define what needs scanning?

Identify the electrical equipment you want reviewed and explain the purpose of the scan. Scope depends on the equipment, access and operating conditions. We discuss those details before agreeing what can be assessed and how findings will be documented.

Is a thermal scan a complete electrical diagnosis?

No. Thermal images show temperature patterns, and unusual heat may call for closer assessment. Equipment load, construction and surrounding conditions affect interpretation. Findings can help prioritize further investigation or corrective work.

Helpful details to share

  • Your property location and type of facility
  • Equipment to be reviewed and any known concerns
  • Operating schedule and access requirements
  • Inspection or maintenance deadlines, if applicable

READ THE RESULTS

Use thermal images as a starting point.

Infrared imaging shows temperature patterns, but a hot spot alone does not identify its cause. Equipment load, construction and surrounding conditions all matter when interpreting a scan.

Unusual heat patterns

An elevated temperature may point to a connection, loading or equipment issue that deserves further electrical assessment.

Targeted follow-up

Findings can help prioritize a closer inspection or corrective work. The right next step depends on the equipment and the conditions observed.

A thermal scan supports maintenance planning; it is not a substitute for a complete electrical inspection or diagnosis.

HOW THE WORK PROCEEDS

From scope to next steps.

01

Scope review

Discuss the equipment, location, purpose of the scan and access requirements.

02

Site preparation

Agree on timing and operating conditions so the equipment can be reviewed as planned.

03

Infrared scan

Capture thermal images of the agreed accessible electrical equipment.

04

Findings

Document observed temperature differences and discuss what they may indicate.

05

Next steps

Prioritize further assessment or corrective work where the findings call for it.
