Too Hot to Handle? Thermal Imaging and Electrical Safety

Overheated Electrical Systems are A Major Cause of Commercial Fires
A commercial building can have dozens of points where electrical wiring connects to supply apparatus and equipment and every one of those points can cause heat buildup. Junction boxes, electrical outlets, breaker panels and connections to equipment that need electricity to operate all have the potential to develop problems.

Over time lug nuts that hold wiring in place and wire nuts used to connect two or more wires together can become loose or cracked, causing dangerous heat to build up or even cause electrical sparks inside your walls. Add to that electrical equipment heating up because of worn bearings, drive shafts that are out of balance or terminal blocks that are cracked or dirty and you have the potential for real trouble!

Thermal Imaging Can See What Can’t Be Seen!

With Thermal Imaging I can "see" through walls, look behind electrical panels and inside your equipment to find those potential problems. By scanning your building and equipment I can develop an overall thermal picture of your location. Analyzing the results of the thermal pictures allows me to identify the hot spots - allowing you to have them repaired before the fire alarms begin to sound. A yearly Thermal Scan can be a powerful weapon in your maintenance and safety arsenal. Give me a call and let me show you how inexpensive it can be to unleash the power of Thermal Imaging for your business. Interested in learning more? Call me at 803-328-2889 and let’s talk!
