Thermal Imaging Inspections for Auckland Commercial Sites

Thermal Imaging Inspections for Auckland Commercial Sites

A loose connection heats up long before it fails. The Conduction Company scans commercial switchboards, distribution boards, and plant with a thermal camera while everything stays running, then reports on what we found and what it needs.

Are You Experiencing Problems with Overheating Switchboards?

Heat is the first thing a failing connection produces, and the failure itself usually arrives as an unplanned outage rather than a warning. Breakers trip on site with no obvious cause, a board smells hot or shows discoloured terminations, and work stops when a connection finally lets go. Meanwhile an ageing board sits unopened for years, loads get added over time with no check on what the board carries, and plant and motors run hot with nothing ever measured, so there is no way to plan electrical repairs, only react to them. The one thing that would settle it is an inspection, and that is the thing a site which cannot be shut down cannot have.

The Conduction Company scans commercial switchboards, distribution boards, and plant with a thermal camera while the site keeps running, reports what was found and where, then does the remedial work and certifies it.

Thermal Imaging Services for Commercial Sites

Switchboard and Distribution Board Scanning

The Conduction Company scans live boards under normal load and finds the terminations, breakers, and connections running hotter than they should. Nothing gets shut down and nothing gets dismantled to do it.

Finding Faults Before They Fail

Heat is what a failing connection produces first. The Conduction Company uses thermal imaging to catch the ones on their way out, which is the difference between a booked repair and an unplanned outage.

Plant and Equipment Scanning

Motors, drives, and connected plant. The Conduction Company scans the electrical side of the equipment your site depends on.

Reporting

A scan is only useful if someone tells you what it means. The Conduction Company reports what was found, where it was found, and what we recommend doing about it, so you can plan the work rather than react to it.

Scheduled Inspections

Boards move over time as loads change and connections relax. The Conduction Company sets up thermal imaging on a schedule for sites that want the problems found before they happen.

Follow-Up Repairs

Finding it and fixing it from one company. The Conduction Company does the remedial work on anything the scan turns up, and certifies it.

Inspections Outside Your Trading Hours

A scan needs the site running under load, which is not always during the working day. The Conduction Company books thermal imaging outside a client's trading hours where that gets a truer picture or causes less disruption.

What Thermal Imaging Is Actually For

The Conduction Company uses thermal imaging for electrical inspection. Switchboards, distribution boards, connections, and plant, looking for heat where there should not be any.

It is not a building survey. Thermal cameras get sold for finding moisture, missing insulation, and roof leaks. The Conduction Company does not offer any of that. We are electrical contractors and this is an electrical inspection service.

Why choose The Conduction Company?

No Shutdown Required

The scan needs the board live and loaded, which means The Conduction Company can do it without switching your site off. Nothing gets dismantled either.

The Same Company Does the Repair

A report that tells you to call someone else is half a service. The Conduction Company does the remedial work on anything the scan finds and certifies it.

Registered Electricians and Inspectors In House

The Conduction Company employs registered electricians and electrical inspectors, so the inspection, the repair, and the certificate come from one company.

600+ Five Star Google Reviews

Auckland clients have left The Conduction Company more than 600 Google reviews at a 5.0 rating. We are Master Electricians members and Mastercraft Electrical licensees for Auckland Central.

What Affects the Cost of a Thermal Imaging Inspection?

How many boards and how much plant, how big the site is, whether it has to be done outside trading hours, and whether you want a one-off scan or a schedule. The Conduction Company prices it after knowing what is on site.

We quote on facts, not guesses

Before we give you a price, we carry out a proper assessment of your site and how you'll use the inspection.
That way you know exactly what you're buying and the total cost, with no surprises.
Clear expectations from the outset, start to finish.

How The Conduction Company runs a commercial job

3

Report and Remedy

You get a report on what was found. The Conduction Company does the repairs if you want them done.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do we have to shut the site down for a thermal scan?

No, and that is the point of it. The board has to be live and under load for the scan to show anything, so The Conduction Company works with your site running normally. Nothing gets dismantled either.

What does a thermal camera actually find?

Heat where there should not be any. Loose terminations, overloaded circuits, failing breakers, and connections that have relaxed over time. The Conduction Company scans for those before they turn into an outage or a fire.

Can you fix what you find?

Yes. The Conduction Company does the remedial work and certifies it, so the inspection and the repair come from one company rather than two.

How often should a commercial board be scanned?

It depends on the site, the age of the board, and how much the loads change. The Conduction Company will tell you what makes sense for your installation rather than sell you a schedule you do not need.

We have used these guys a couple of times and have been very pleased each time. They did what was requested, but also left an immaculate job, with extra touches like labels on the switches for our outdoor lights. We will definitely be using Jordan and the team again!
