What information will be included in the final report?

2025-11-20T15:16:44+00:003 October 2025|, |

Our certified reports include high-resolution thermal images of each distribution board, annotated findings, and categorised risk levels (from minor to critical). Each issue is documented with clear explanations and recommendations. This report not only satisfies insurance compliance but also supports your planned preventative maintenance strategy.

How long does an inspection take?

2025-11-20T15:16:45+00:003 October 2025|, |

The time required depends on the number of distribution boards, sub-panels, and switchgear on site. A small business may only require a few hours, while larger facilities with multiple panels can take a full day or more. We provide clear scheduling in advance to minimise disruption and ensure full coverage of your systems.

Do inspections require power to be switched off?

2025-11-20T15:16:45+00:003 October 2025|, |

No. Thermographic inspections are carried out live, under normal operating loads, to ensure accuracy. Panels are opened by a qualified electrician, and our Level 3 Certified Thermographers conduct the imaging safely without interrupting your business operations. This makes the process both efficient and non-disruptive.

What standards are these inspections carried out under?

2025-11-20T15:16:46+00:003 October 2025|, |

All of our inspections are conducted in line with internationally recognised standards including ISO 18434 (condition monitoring using thermography) and IEC 62446-3 (thermographic inspection of PV and electrical systems). Our reports are also compliant with BS 7671 (IET Wiring Regulations), making them fully accepted by insurers and facilities managers.

Why do insurers require annual thermographic inspections of electrical panels?

2025-11-20T15:16:46+00:003 October 2025|, |

Most insurers mandate annual thermal imaging inspections because electrical faults such as loose connections, phase imbalance, and overloads can lead to fire or equipment failure. Thermography provides a non-intrusive, live-testing method that detects these issues early. By submitting a certified thermographic report, businesses demonstrate proactive risk management, reducing liability and ensuring compliance with insurer requirements.
