  1. How Infrared Electrical Inspections Reduce The Risk Of A Commercial Building Fire Electrical and mechanical system failures often cause commercial building fires. Regular infrared inspections of electrical, mechanical, and steam systems allow for the early detection of possible problems before they lead to equipment failure or fire. What is Infrared Electrical Inspection? Thermal imaging is used in infrared electrical inspection to identify potentially hazardous hotspots and irregularities that can lead to equipment failure and fire hazards. These faults are not easily visible to naked eyes, but you can easily find them with the help of infrared electrical inspection.

  2. Electrical infrared inspections detect issues before they cause system failure, equipment damage, or a fire. By providing the following advantages, an infrared inspection or survey will significantly increase profitability and lower your operating, monitoring, and maintenance costs: Identifies electrical device problems quickly. Reduces downtime and electrical equipment damage. It prevents system failures that are both catastrophic and expensive. Significantly increases the effectiveness of preventive maintenance. Reduce the risk of fire due to electrical and mechanical malfunctions. Reduce unscheduled downtime Reduce insurance costs

  3. How does it work? By detecting and capturing different levels of infrared light, thermal cameras can detect temperature. This light is invisible to the naked eye, but it can be felt as heat if the intensity is high enough. Infrared radiation is emitted by all objects and is one of the ways heat is transferred.  When you place your hand over hot coals on the grill, the coal will release a lot of infrared radiation, and the heat will be transferred to your hand. Also, only about half of the sun’s energy is given off as visible light—the rest is a mix of ultraviolet and infrared light.
