Infrared Electrical Scanning Services
Find hidden electrical problems before they cause failures. Our experts use infrared scanning to detect hot spots, loose connections, corrosion, and overloaded circuits—helping you prevent costly downtime and protect your workers.

Find Hot Spots Before They Cause Failures
Electrical components generate excess heat when something isn’t working properly—loose connections, overloaded circuits, and failing components all show up as an anomaly on thermal imaging.
Our expert thermographers scan your electrical systems with professional-grade thermal cameras, identifying problems invisible to the naked eye. You get a detailed report with images, temperature readings, and recommended actions.
Why Infrared Scanning Matters
Spot Hidden Problems
Our thermographers detect hot spots that signal loose connections, corrosion, overloaded circuits, and failing components—issues invisible to the naked eye but easily caught with thermal imaging.
Prevent Unplanned Downtime
Identify failing equipment before it causes a shutdown. A single prevented outage can save tens of thousands of dollars—far more than the cost of an annual scan.
Protect Your People
Infrared thermography supports early detection of developing electrical hazards, enabling timely corrective action and strengthening the effectiveness of an organization’s overall safety management system.
Stay Compliant
Many insurance policies, OSHA regulations, and NFPA 70B standards require regular thermographic inspections. Our documented scans help you meet these requirements and stay audit-ready.
A Smart Addition to Preventative Maintenance
Infrared scanning complements your existing maintenance schedule by catching issues traditional inspections miss.
Problems like loose bus bar connections, overloaded breakers, and deteriorating contacts generate heat long before they fail—giving you time to plan repairs on your schedule instead of during an emergency.
NFPA 70B recommends annual scans for newer equipment and every six months for aging or problematic systems—and many insurance providers require or incentivize regular inspections.
Reduce Downtime, Repairs, and Risk
A single equipment failure can cost tens of thousands in emergency repairs and lost production. Regular infrared scanning catches issues early—when a simple fix costs far less than a catastrophic breakdown.

Frequently Asked Questions
How often should I have an infrared electrical scan?
NFPA 70B recommends a minimum of annual thermal scans. And should be re-scanned after repairs to ensure the issue is resolved.
My equipment is brand new. Do I still need a scan?
Yes! A baseline reading after your system has been in full production for at least a month can help identify installation defects and begin the process of trending within your facility.
In the event that there is equipment in your system that is not properly installed, or simply has a high resistance connection (for example a wire or connection that was not properly torqued), an infrared scan can identify these issues in advance, preventing failure and saving an enormous amount of money for your business.
What issues can infrared scanning detect?
Defective equipment, inductive heating, unbalanced loads, open circuits, overloads and loose or deteriorated connections or components will all be scanned to be sure all is in working order.
Where anomalies are found , problems can be identified before a failure occurs.
Will an infrared scan lower my insurance premiums?
Many insurance providers require or incentivize annual thermal inspections. Contact your carrier to ask about premium discounts for documented preventative maintenance.
Does e-Hazard perform repairs after the scan?
No, but we can recommend qualified electrical contractors. Our role is to identify and document issues—you choose who handles the repairs.
Can you combine an IR scan with an arc flash study?
Yes, and we offer cost savings when services are bundled since our team is already on-site. Contact us for a combined quote.
