Insurance Thermal Survey | Thermal Scanners

Insurance companies are more frequently requesting thermal scanning to be completed upon electrical boards located within businesses and large residential complexes as part of the requirements to obtain insurance policies. This has been an emerging trend as thermal scanning has been proven to identify electrical problems before failure; where failure can lead to possible large scale fire damage or in the worst case fatalities.

Thermal Scanners offer Insurance complaint reports that meet all requirements for insurance of your business or residential site. If any thermal or visual exceptions are found these will be communicated to the client with recommendations to investigate and fix. A repairs section is included at every fault and upon remediation the electrician can sign off on any required repairs to complete the insurance report. After repairs Thermal Scanners can provide a rescan of repaired components for quality assurance at a reduced rate please enquire today.

Insurance companies may require a quick turn around of less than 30 days to complete a thermal inspection, and Thermal Scanners can assist with this.

The benefits of completing insurance compliant thermal imaging extend beyond being able to obtain insurance, some of the other possible benefits include:

Planning down time for repairs during non-peak times,
Identify overloaded circuits or under rated cables,
Reduce cost of repairs by only replacing faulty components,
Minimising the risk of fire and damage due to failure of components, and
Ensuring longevity of components through balanced loads.

Insurance Compliant electrical thermal imaging is a critical non-destructive testing service for all business owners, business managers, site managers and body corporates. Thermal imaging of electrical components should be carried out on a regular basis (annually) as a part of a preventative maintenance regime to assess and ensure the health of all electrical systems. During the thermal scanning all electrical boards must be active and under normal load to complete the scan.

Thermal Scanning

Imagine if your company suffers a critical electrical fault that resulted in a major disruption to your business, causing excessive downtime. This can be detected before it happens and prevented utilising thermal scanning.

Electrical Thermal Imaging

Electrical thermal imaging examines the operating temperatures of electrical equipment under normal load and detects potential problems before they develop, such as loose connections or degraded components.

PV Solar Panel Thermal Survey

Thermal scanning can be completed upon active solar systems such as Photovoltaic panels or solar hot water systems to find defective cells and ensure normal operations after a large weather event such as a storm.

Thermal Scanners will provide help in understanding the requirements to achieve insurance compliant thermal scanning and the additional benefits offered by completing a thermal scan. As part of the service Thermal Scanners will provide a detailed insurance compliant thermal report which includes:

Detailed scope of works,
Thermal and visual images of all Exceptions found including:
- Location,
- Date and time,
- Priority rating (for level of importance), and
- Possible causes (i.e. Loose connection or Unbalanced Load).
