Thermography
Leveraging Thermochromic Safe-Connect Solutions for Electrical Inspections
Thermochromic materials—substances that change color in response to temperature variations—offer a promising avenue for advancements in electrical inspections. Electrical systems, ranging from household wiring to complex industrial networks, require regular maintenance and inspection to ensure safety and functionality.

Custom Electrical Panels with IR Windows
Thermography Infrared inspections of electrical equipment are a vital part of any reliability program. While thermography inspections used to be reserved for the most critical electrical assets in a facility, new standards outlined in NFPA 70B make it a requirement to perform a thermography test of all your electrical assets at least once per year.

Cost Avoidance Within the Infrared World
Who does cost avoidance? What is it? Where would you apply it? Why would you worry about it? These are the questions that one should ask themselves. Most of the time is spent doing the physical work and analyzing that data to determine the condition or health of the equipment rather than thinking what our group did to save the company money. This article explains the methodology we used and why you should care about cost avoidance.
