Electrical Thermography
Guide
Electrical Thermography
Electrical thermography is a non-invasive method for detecting thermal anomalies in electrical installations. This guide explains what it detects, how it works and why it is increasingly required by insurers.
What it detects
Overloaded circuits, loose connections, failing components, imbalanced loads — conditions that generate excess heat before causing failure.
How it works
Infrared cameras capture thermal images of electrical equipment under load. Anomalies appear as hot spots compared to similar components.
Why insurers require it
Electrical fires are a leading cause of building fires. Thermography identifies risks before they become incidents.
Frequency of inspection
Most insurers recommend annual inspections. High-risk facilities may require more frequent surveys.
