Infrared Surveying for Electricians & Electrical Contractors
Every day in North America, the electrical switchgear in thousands of buildings is checked by infrared (IR) thermographers. Electrical Infrared Thermography is now an integral part of almost every facility manager's P/PM program. These IR surveys have also become standard operating procedure for corporations and are being required by most insurance companies.

As an electrical contractor, are you taking advantage of the chance to perform these surveys?

Come to Thermal Imaging Conference (TIC 2022) for this two-day course on Electrical IR Thermography and enjoy these benefits:
  • Learn industry survey techniques and accepted standards for infrared thermography.
  • See many examples of electrical faults through the lens of an IR camera.
  • Learn how to tell normal heat from abnormal heat, and how to decide if there is a problem.
  • Enter the free exhibition and put your hands on many different infrared cameras (and reporting software) and see which camera system best suits your needs.
  • Learn the proper PPE to wear during an electrical scan.
  • See how IR Windows affect thermal survey temperature readings.
  • Meet other electrical contractors that are using infrared thermography to get new accounts and maintain existing accounts!
