At ESB Power we have many years of experience in the testing and maintenance of a range of switchgear, varying from LV through to HV and EHV. Another often overlooked part of the system, switchgear of all ratings sits silently powering your every need. Unobtrusive online thermography or partial discharge testing can be carried out to determine if any equipment requires immediate attention or to pinpoint potential at risk equipment that may require maintenance or may be nearing the end of its lifecycle.
Infrared scanning technology is a great tool allowing identification of electrical problems related to heat, allowing the power system to stay online without disruption. Electrical equipment commonly fails due to heat build-up caused by a defect, these defects can include for example poor connections, unbalanced loads, faulty bearings in motors, inductive heating, circuit overload or an installation deficiency. ESB Power performs infrared electrical inspections to find and correct hot spot problems before they potentially cause damage to your personnel, equipment and facility. ESB Power provides the following electrical infrared scanning services:
