Thermal imaging of switchboards: what a scan finds and why it matters
What a switchboard thermal scan finds, why it is done under load, how often to scan and what a useful thermal imaging report looks like.
Guides
Plain-English guides for building owners, facility managers and strata managers on keeping electrical, mechanical and security systems compliant and reliable.
Managing a building means keeping track of a long list of obligations, from emergency lighting tests and test and tag intervals to switchboard condition, HVAC servicing and the rules around workplace CCTV. These guides explain what the standards actually require, what a proper inspection involves and what records you should expect to receive.
They are written by the team at Eclipse EMSS for facility managers, strata and property managers, and business owners across Western Sydney and Greater Sydney. If a guide raises a question about your own site, you can always get in touch and we will talk it through.
