Improperly seated conductor in a rectifier circuit
A conductor not fully seated in a breaker lug inside a rectifier circuit, identified through visual inspection after a small thermal rise prompted a closer look.
Industries / Data Centers
For some data center environments, electrical or cooling failures can create significant downtime exposure very quickly. Infrared inspection finds the developing fault in UPS systems, cooling disconnects, distribution equipment, and critical electrical infrastructure before it reaches protected load. Infinite Infrared inspects the full range of electrical equipment in data centers and related critical infrastructure facilities.
Internal breaker and connection heating inside the systems that protect everything downstream.
Loose or loaded terminations at the point of use and in the distribution chain.
Disconnects, contactors, and feeds supplying precision cooling units are high-consequence failure points.
Rooftop cooling disconnects are exposed to weather and thermal cycling, creating elevated contact deterioration risk.
Main and feeder connections where a fault can have the widest downstream impact. ATS gear is critical to transfer reliability.
Core and winding imbalance on transformers; termination heating on main feeder runs.
NFPA 70B treats data center electrical systems as in scope and sets inspection intervals. Documented infrared records support uptime audits, carrier reviews, and ongoing reliability programs.

Abnormal heating inside a non-fused rooftop disconnect supplying cooling equipment, consistent with poor contact at the knife blade or pivot.
Significant heating inside a fused rooftop disconnect supplying CRAC cooling equipment for a data center main hall, requiring a scheduled overnight replacement.
Yes. We plan around your escort, badging, and confidentiality requirements. Client and facility details are kept private unless permission is given to share them.
Yes. Equipment is scanned under load so we see real operating conditions, following safe work practices.
Yes. The Critical Infrastructure page covers DC power plants, rectifiers, and distributed network sites — often inspected on the same multi-site program as a data center.
We inspect the electrical equipment feeding and controlling cooling systems: CRAC unit disconnects, CRAH unit feeds, rooftop HVAC disconnects, condensing unit disconnects, and related electrical distribution equipment. We inspect the electrical side, not the refrigerant or mechanical components.
