Electrical Infrared Inspections Tampa
Weller Infrared Services provides expert electrical infrared inspections using high-quality FLIR thermal imaging cameras. Performed by a Level III Certified Infrared Thermographer, these non-invasive surveys help commercial, industrial, and multifamily clients throughout Tampa Bay, Florida, and the Southeast avoid costly downtime, equipment failures, and fire hazards.
The NFPA 70B-19 Recommended Practice for Electrical Equipment Maintenance states in section 11.17.5: "Routine infrared inspections of energized electrical systems should be performed annually prior to shutdown. More frequent infrared inspections, for example, quarterly or semiannually, should be performed where warranted by loss experience, installation of new electrical equipment, or changes in environmental, operational, or load conditions."
