Also known as IR, it uses a frequency of light that is not visible to the human eye and is used to detect heat given from artificial or natural objects. The technology is commonly used to view images that cannot be seen with normal light. This technology is capable of detecting changes in human cells to detecting heat given off of electrical circuits. An electrical infrared inspection typically involves the use of a specialized microscope viewing device that shows images in the spectrum of infrared.
When electricians inspect the home, they use IR to detect electrical or mechanical elements under normal conditions to identify abnormally cool or hot components or areas. It is one of the most powerful maintenance tools available and is less invasive than older methods of detection. In many circumstances, equipment failure can be preceded by a period of increased heat. This is most common in electrical equipment.
Electricians identify overheating elements, circuits, connections, and components with IR thermography. Professionals can implement preventative maintenance, reliability, and extra layers of safety through the use of IRs.
Home owners and business operators can hire experienced professionals to use IR technology for added benefits and cost savings. Commercial buildings and residential areas that need to keep their power on during examinations can with IR technology. Professionals can spot problems that are developing and prevent any serious or further damaged to structural integrities. Without IR technology, electricians might have to tear down parts of the wall just to access the electrical components, which can be very costly.
Industrial complexes might use the technology so that professionals can spot mechanical problems and keep the complex running safely during the inspection for other employees. High electrical loads are commonplace when it comes to homes and commercial owners, if not in safe propensities, these loads can cause a long list of dangerous failures such as fires, damages to equipment, and meltdowns.
Electric circuitry and its components have a tendency to start fires when not properly maintained. Fires are commonly caused when circuits or their components are overheated. When it comes to commercial or residential buildings, faulty wiring is the number one reason for fires. Overloaded components, bad designs, and faulty wiring can be detected through the use of IRs. Critical components in electric designs can overheat through overlooked bad connections.
IRs can make inspections run reliably to ensure quality results. It is not uncommon for wirings in a building to just go bad after a while. Wiring can go bad due to bad connections, faulty design, poor quality equipment, lack of maintenance, etc.
The technology does not require direct contact with anything, but the tests must be performed while equipment is running under normal load conditions. This allows a residence or commercial building to operate while the building is being inspected. If there is a noticeable temperature difference, abnormal friction, or a deterioration of thermal insulation, electricians can act proactively. That is why it is important to have an electrician examine the building as soon as possible as hot spots can fail while in service and cause panics, fires, and ruined equipment.
