Infrared inspections are one of the most effective preventive maintenance tools for identifying electrical and mechanical issues before they cause costly downtime or safety incidents. That's why the NFPA 70B requires they be done for all electrical equipment every year (at a minimum). Yet, many facilities don’t know what to do when problems are found. At Herzig Engineering, our infrared scanning services not only uncover hidden issues—we help you fix them before they escalate

Even experienced workers can make dangerous mistakes when dealing with electrical equipment. Whether it’s due to complacency, lack of training, or pressure to get the job done quickly, these errors can lead to serious injuries, equipment damage, or even fatalities. At Herzig Engineering, we work with safety and engineering leaders to eliminate these risks through expert training, inspections, and compliance-focused services.  Top Electrical Safety Mistakes—and How to Prevent

At Herzig Engineering, we’re proud to be the longest-standing national provider of arc flash studies and compliance.

The 2026 National Electrical Code (NEC) brings some of the most impactful changes in recent history — especially for electrical safety and compliance. Among the most significant 2026 NEC updates are the new, mandatory arc flash labeling requirements, which now apply to nearly all commercial and industrial electrical equipment.  If your team is preparing for NEC 2026 changes, understanding these new requirements is critical to keeping your facility compliant, passing inspectio

When working with three-phase (3ø) electrical equipment, there’s always the risk of a short circuit or other malfunctions that could cause a sudden release of energy through the air.

In any facility with energized electrical equipment, arc flash labels are more than just stickers—they are life-saving tools. Yet, it’s not uncommon to find missing, damaged, or outdated arc flash labels in commercial and industrial settings. This oversight doesn’t just jeopardize compliance; it puts workers directly in harm’s way. At Herzig Engineering, we help companies avoid these hidden dangers through comprehensive arc flash studies and on-site label application services
