NFPA 70B · Predictive Maintenance

Infrared Thermography Surveys

Annual thermal imaging of electrical distribution equipment—find heat problems before they become arc flash incidents, fires, or production stoppages. A core NFPA 70B maintenance activity.

Electrical thermography and safety inspection

Why Infrared Belongs in Your Safety Program

NFPA 70B references thermal imaging as an inspection method for electrical equipment. Combined with NFPA 70E training and arc flash labeling, thermography completes the loop: workers know how to work safely, equipment is maintained to stay safe, and heat anomalies are caught before failure.

  • Identify loose connections, overloaded circuits, and deteriorating conductors early
  • Support NFPA 70B Electrical Maintenance Program inspection requirements
  • Reduce arc flash and fire risk from undetected heat buildup
  • Prioritize repairs before unplanned shutdowns or catastrophic failure
  • Document findings for maintenance records and audit trails

Equipment we survey

  • Switchgear and switchboards
  • Motor control centers (MCCs)
  • Panelboards and distribution panels
  • Transformers and dry-type units
  • Bus duct and terminations
  • Motors, drives, and starters

Serving manufacturing, energy, utilities, and critical facilities across Texas and nationwide.

Survey Process

Structured delivery from planning through documented findings.

01

Scope & schedule

We review your one-line, equipment list, and operating constraints—then schedule scans during normal load conditions when anomalies are visible.

02

Thermal imaging survey

Certified thermographers capture IR images of electrical terminations, bus work, breakers, and critical connections while equipment remains energized under load.

03

Analysis & report

Findings are classified by severity with visual and thermal images, location references, and recommended corrective actions for your maintenance team.

04

Close the loop

Re-scan after repairs to verify corrections. Pair with NFPA 70B training so planners know how IR fits your Electrical Maintenance Program.

Bundle Thermography with Training & Arc Flash

Ask for a combined proposal: IR survey, NFPA 70B overview, arc flash study, and NFPA 70E qualified worker training—aligned to the same equipment list and one-lines.
