Thermographic inspections for electrical installations
Thermography identifies hot spots in installations before they cause damage or fires, without stopping activity.
Overheating of a connection or a protective device can develop without visible signs. Thermography highlights temperature differences before the problem causes a shutdown or failure.
GreenSoft inspects panels, connections, protections, busbars and electrical equipment under load, under the conditions set for the objective. Thermal images are analyzed together with the operating context, as temperature alone does not always explain the cause.
The report groups observations by priority level and includes location, relevant images and technical recommendation. The beneficiary can plan interventions in maintenance windows, with fewer unplanned shutdowns.
What does the service include?
- Scanning accessible boards and connections
- Identifying hot spots and imbalances
- Correlating images with the load and operating conditions
- Visible and thermal image report
- Prioritizing fixes and post-intervention verification
Why GreenSoft
Thermography is integrated into an electrical analysis, not delivered as a simple collection of images. The team can check protections, connections and sizing, then propose the appropriate remediation.
How the project is progressing
- Establishing inspection areas and conditions
- Scanning in relevant operating mode
- Analysis and classification of observations
- Planned remediation and follow-up, if required
For what types of goals
- Hotels
- shopping centers
- chow
- Warehouses
- office buildings
- institutions and any facility where continuity of supply is important
Request a thermographic inspection and turn hidden observations into a prioritized maintenance plan.

Frequently asked questions
What is thermographic inspection and how does it work on electrical systems?
It is a thermal imaging camera analysis that sees the temperature of electrical components. A loose contact or an overload heats up abnormally long before it fails; the camera highlights that hot spot as a colored spot. This way we detect incipient defects invisible to the naked eye.
Should the company's activity or the power be turned off during thermal imaging camera scanning?
No. On the contrary, the scan must be done with the installation under load, under normal working conditions, for thermal defects to be visible. The inspection is completely non-invasive: we do not touch or dismantle anything, so your activity continues without interruption.
What are the most common electrical defects discovered by thermography?
Most common: loose or oxidized connections in panels, overloaded fuses and circuit breakers, aged contacts, load imbalances between phases and undersized conductors. All are common causes of electrical fires, but easy to fix if caught early.
How often is it recommended to perform a thermographic audit of electrical panels?
For commercial and industrial buildings we recommend an annual inspection, and for critical installations even every 6 months. A scan before the summer season, when the electrical load in Constanta increases significantly, is a smart preventive measure.
Is the thermographic report recognized by insurance companies?
Yes. Many insurance companies require or value a thermographic report as proof of preventive maintenance, and in the event of a claim it demonstrates your diligence. The GreenSoft report includes thermal images, the severity of each point, and remediation recommendations.
Does thermography require the installation to be shut down?
Typically, the relevant inspection is done with the equipment in operation and under a representative load, respecting safety conditions.
Does the report also indicate the cause of the defect?
The report states the probable cause and recommends checks or remedies. The final diagnosis may require additional measurements.
