Electrical Thermal Imaging:
Capturing Hidden Issues
The Little Electrician, Where Expertise Meets Professionalism
At The Little Electrician we specialize in thermal imaging, also known as infrared thermography or thermal scanning, is a diagnostic technique used to detect and visualize temperature variations in electrical systems and components.
​
There are 7 common electrical faults that are often found in electricals switchboards.
-
Loose or deteriorated connections.
-
Overloaded circuits.
-
Unbalanced loads.
-
Open circuits.
-
Inductive heating.
-
Destructive harmonics.
-
Defective equipment.
These anomalies could potentially lead to burns, equipment failure, fires, or electrocution.
​
This is what an overloaded circuit looks like.
By getting one of The Little Electrician trained professionals to conducting a thermal inspection of your electricals systems, we can quickly identify abnormal temperature patterns and potential problems within electrical installation. this includes switchboards, panels, circuit breakers, motors, and other components.
This non-invasive technique allows for early detection of issues, preventing costly downtime, equipment damage, and ensuring safety.
​
Regular electrical thermal imaging is an essential preventive maintenance practice for commercial, industrial, and residential settings, as it helps address issues before they escalate into major problems.
