Industries / Manufacturing
Production stops when electrical systems fail. Infrared inspection reveals overheating components, loose terminations, and load imbalance before they cause unplanned downtime.
Starter and connection heating across the MCC.
Tap and joint connections feeding equipment.
Uneven phase loading that runs motors hot.
NFPA 70B includes infrared inspection as part of electrical maintenance program guidance and requirements. How it applies depends on equipment condition, facility risk, insurer requirements, AHJ, contracts, and the facility's maintenance program.
One coil of a dry-type transformer significantly hotter than the others, indicating overheating that warranted inspection and cleaning before failure.
No. Inspection is performed on energized equipment under load, so the line keeps running.
