Fox River Systems - Product Detail

The Electrical Applications specialty course is designed to give practicing thermographers an in-depth understanding of applied thermography focused specifically on inspecting electrical systems and related equipment.

The class covers the inspection of electrical equipment from the utility substations right down through to low-voltage equipment. Review of case studies, interpretation of thermal images and root-cause failure discussions all form the basis of this course.

Course overview:

Transmission and distribution systems
Exterior substations and components
Transformers, circuit breakers, and bus work
Motor control centers, panels, and components
Motors, generators, batteries, and power supplies
DC systems and circuits
Inspection parameters, procedures, and electrical safety
Reporting, severity assessment, and prioritization
Infrared inspection windows/viewports
Using ultrasonics, MCA and other technologies
Adding high-emissivity targets

Attendees learn inspection techniques based on accepted industry and international inspection procedures. Participants that have infrared imagers are encouraged to bring their systems as there are a number of hands-on learning opportunities available during the class.

Continuing Education Units/Credits are available for this training.
