Electrical Thermal Imaging for Auckland Homes
Something smells like burning, or the switchboard is older than you are. The Conduction Company scans your switchboard and your hardest-working circuits with a thermal camera, finds anything running hotter than it should, and fixes it.
Are You Experiencing Problems with Burning Smells at Home?
A loose or badly made connection heats up, and you usually cannot see it happening behind the switchboard cover. The Conduction Company points a thermal camera at the switchboard and the high-load circuits in your home, finds the heat, works out what is causing it, and fixes it.
Keeping Your Property Safe, Compliant, and Running Smoothly
Our reliable electrician team in Auckland handles everything from emergency breakdowns to preventative maintenance, helping Auckland homes stay safe,compliant, and efficient all year round.
Thermal Imaging Services for Auckland Homes
The Conduction Company does thermal imaging in houses as well as on commercial sites. In a home, that means the switchboard and the circuits that carry the heaviest loads, plus insulation checks on the walls, roof space, and underfloor. For businesses, The Conduction Company's commercial thermal imaging covers boards and plant on commercial sites.
Switchboard Scans
The Conduction Company scans your switchboard for overheating and poor terminations, the connections where a cable is fastened into the board and has worked loose or was never made properly.
Oven and High-Load Circuits
The oven circuit and other power circuits that carry heavy loads get checked too. The Conduction Company scans the cabling to see whether any of it is running hotter than it should.
Older Homes
Age is one of the main reasons to do it. The Conduction Company especially recommends a scan in older homes, where the switchboard and its connections have been carrying load for a long time.
When Something Seems Wrong
A burning smell, a warm power point, or just a sense that something is off. “It is certainly something we do in homes, especially older homes, where someone has flagged something as being potentially electrically dangerous. We'll go through and figure it out for them,” says Jordan Statham, director of The Conduction Company.
Finding It and Fixing It
The Conduction Company fixes what the scan turns up. Where the switchboard itself is the problem, it can replace it with a switchboard upgrade, and where the trouble turns out to be a fault rather than heat, The Conduction Company's fault finding service tracks it down.
Thermal Imaging Insulation Checks
The Conduction Company also uses thermal imaging to check whether a house has insulation in its walls, roof space, and underfloor. It is useful when an owner, a buyer, an architect, or Council needs confirmation that a house is insulated.
Thermal Images Inside and Out
The Conduction Company takes thermal images inside and outside the house on a cold morning, when the difference between the inside and outside temperature is big enough to show up on the camera.
A Look Inside the Walls
The thermal images are backed up with a look inside the walls. The Conduction Company takes off power outlets and light switches and checks the wall cavity with an inspection camera, a small camera on the end of a cable.
Roof Space and Underfloor
The Conduction Company checks the roof space and the underfloor by eye and photographs what is there.
A Written Report
The Conduction Company finishes with a written report and the photos: a summary, the findings for the roof space, the walls, and the underfloor, and a conclusion about the points it checked.
If the Check Finds Gaps
A small section can be topped up by The Conduction Company's own team, and a full roof space or underfloor is arranged through The Conduction Company, as its home insulation service explains.
What It Covers
The Conduction Company uses thermal imaging to inspect your electrical system and to check whether your house is insulated. The switchboard, the high-load circuits, and the walls, roof space, and underfloor.
The Conduction Company does not use it to find damp or leaks. It is not a moisture or leak survey.
An insulation check is evidence of what was found. The Conduction Company reports on the points it checked, and Council makes its own decision.

Frequently Asked Questions
Electrical Thermal Imaging for Auckland Homes
What does thermal imaging find in a house?
Heat where there should not be any. The Conduction Company scans for overheating and poor terminations in the switchboard, and for cabling on the oven circuit or other high-load power circuits that is running hotter than it should. It also uses thermal imaging, with a look inside the walls, to check whether a house is insulated.
I can smell burning. Is thermal imaging worth it?
If you can smell burning right now, do not wait for a booked scan. Call The Conduction Company straight away on (09) 390 0525, or see our emergency electrician page. Thermal imaging is for the smell that came and went: a burning smell you cannot trace is exactly when The Conduction Company recommends a scan.
Is it worth doing in an older home?
Yes. The Conduction Company especially recommends it in older homes, where the switchboard and its connections have been carrying load for a long time.
Does the power need to be off?
No. A thermal camera only shows heat where current is flowing, so The Conduction Company scans with the power on.
Who carries out the thermal imaging?
At The Conduction Company, thermal imaging is carried out by EWRB registered electricians, so the person who finds the problem can also fix it.
Can you fix what the scan finds?
Yes. Remaking a poor termination is “the installation, connection, or maintenance of conductors”, which Schedule 1 of the Electricity (Safety) Regulations 2010 lists as prescribed electrical work. The Conduction Company's registered electricians do that work and certify it where it needs to be.
Can you check whether my house has insulation?
Yes. The Conduction Company takes thermal images inside and outside the house, looks inside the walls through power outlets and light switches with an inspection camera, and checks the roof space and underfloor. You get a written report of what was found at the points checked.
Can I give the insulation report to Council?
Yes, as evidence. The Conduction Company's written report sets out what was found at the points it checked. Council makes its own decision.
Does it find damp or leaks?
No. The Conduction Company uses thermal imaging for electrical inspection and insulation checks, not to find damp or leaks.

What Affects the Cost of Thermal Imaging at Home?
How many switchboards the house has, how many high-load circuits need checking, and whether the scan finds something that needs fixing.
