Why Thermal Image a Switchboard?

Electrical switchboards are critical to the smooth functioning of your electrical systems, making them vital components that require careful maintenance. With switchboard thermal imaging, you can detect early signs of electrical faults such as loose connections, overheating, or unbalanced loads. If left unchecked, these issues can lead to severe consequences, including fires or expensive equipment failure.


How Often Should This Occur?

Most Insurance Companies will request switchboards across the site to be thermal scanned every 12 months, depending on the industry of work occurring at the location. Sites deemed less hazardous, such as schools, would be scanned every 24 months. Some business will possess their own in-house safety requirements and may thermal scan more regularly to avoid shutdown costs.
