Infrared Electrical Inspections: How IR Scanning Prevents Arc Flash Incidents
When it comes to workplace safety and operational uptime, electrical hazards pose one of the most critical risks—especially arc flash incidents. These explosive events can result in severe injuries, costly equipment damage, and even fatalities. Fortunately, there's a proactive approach that helps detect potential problems before they escalate: infrared (IR) electrical inspections . What Is Infrared Scanning? Infrared scanning, also known as thermographic or IR scanning, is

The Importance of Infrared Scans and Their Relation to NFPA 70B
Infrared (IR) scans are an essential tool for identifying potential issues in electrical systems before they result in costly failures or hazardous conditions. These scans use thermal imaging to detect abnormal heat patterns that could indicate loose connections, overloaded circuits, or deteriorating components. This proactive approach allows for timely maintenance, ensuring the reliability and safety of electrical systems.   The NFPA 70B, "Standard for Electrical Equipment
