Standard Reports to Customer

Where corrective action is “required immediately” the site liaison contact person is informed straight away. Otherwise our Thermographer will brief the nominated contact person on any significant findings before leaving the premises at the end of each session/day/job.

Subsequently our office prepares a document covering the Thermal Survey.

A hyperlinked table at the front of the document gives an executive summary with the location of each fault, findings, temperatures, loads, observations etc as appropriate. The degree of severity and any recommendations for action the Thermographer has made appear as red coloured entries, while items repaired during survey appear as green coloured entries.

The next part of the document contains a list identifying each cabinet or piece of equipment presented for survey. Beside each item is the result of the Thermographer's examination, which may be:

No Fault:

All elements of this component/cabinet/panel etc were scanned and no anomaly was found.

Not Scanned:

This component/cabinet/panel etc could not be thermally scanned. Possibly it was switched off, could not be opened, or some other issue prevented examination.

REPORT xx

A fault was detected, and details of it together with any recommendations by the Thermographer and additional information following technical review are given in the indicated report.

REPORT xx

A fault was detected, but it was satisfactorily fixed at the time of survey. This may have been tightening a terminal by the electrical contractor, or applying pole fillers to a dangerous escutcheon etc. Details are given in the indicated report.

The final part of the report document contains a single page devoted to each fault detected. This has appropriate infra red and control images, data identifying the fault, measured temperatures, possibly the electrical current, any comments from the Thermographer, repair recommendations, severity classification and provision for the client to record corrective action taken.
