Thermal imaging and the use of thermal imaging camera has
grown considerably over the last decade. Among its application is as a tool in
predictive maintenance of electrical facilities.
Thermal Imaging cameras are not your ordinary cameras. It is one of the most valuable diagnostic tools for Predictive Maintenance. It can detect anomalies that are often invisible to the naked eye, thermographically allows corrective action to be taken before costly system failures occur.

Thermal imaging cameras are commonly used for electrical
inspection in the low voltage level. As electrical connections become loose
there is a resistance to current that can cause an increase in the temperature.
This can then cause components to fail, resulting in
unplanned outages and injuries. The efficiency of an electrical grid also
becomes low prior to failure, thus energy is spent generating heat, causing
unnecessary losses.
