Electrical safety isn’t optional—especially when it comes to infrared inspections. Traditional methods require opening panels, exposing workers to live components, and suiting up in PPE, all while increasing risk and downtime. But there’s a better way. This blog breaks down electrical troubleshooting with and without infrared windows, showing how thermal imaging can enhance NFPA 70E compliance, predictive maintenance, and power system safety. By keeping enclosures sealed, inspections become faster, safer, and more effective—eliminating unnecessary hazards while improving data accuracy. If you’re still opening panels for inspections, it’s time to rethink your approach.
