Electrical Infrared Inspections

Compressed Air & Gas Leak Detection

The National Fire Protection Agency (NFPA) recommends every commercial and industrial building in the United States perform an IR survey at least once per year. Increasingly, insurance companies are requiring IR surveys of electrical equipment. The initial cost of an IR scan is small in comparison to its benefits.

Compressed Air & Gas Leak Detection

The U.S. Department of Energy estimates an average U.S. plant can waste 20 % of its total compressed air production capacity through leaks. System leaks can account for 30 to 50 % of a compressed air system’s capacity. Quick detection of compressed air, gas and vacuum leaks is a single factor in finding hidden profits.

Electrical Load Testing

Connected Load Studies are used to identify overall circuit loading, as well as peak usage. The load study data can offer insights into possible better management of load utilization that can result in significant reductions in energy costs. In addition, the National Electrical Code (NEC) requires a connected load study to determine whet

Ground Testing

Electrical Load Testing

Poor grounding contributes to unnecessary downtime, but a lack of good grounding is dangerous and increases the risk of equipment failure.

Without an effective grounding system, you could be exposed to the risk of electric shock, not to mention instrumentation errors, harmonic distortion issues, power factor problems and a host of possible intermittent dilemmas. If fault currents have no path to the ground through a properly designed and maintained grounding system, they will find unintended paths that could include people.
