Electrical Thermography Training Course Stockton
In conjunction with FLIR, a specialised electrical systems thermal imaging camera course
The one day electrical systems thermography course has been designed to allow anyone to use a thermal imaging camera effectively for preventative maintenance processes. This course is especially ideal for anyone who needs to maintain and inspect electrical systems within a manufacturing or industrial environment, or simply as part of a general surveying contract.

Electrical Thermography Training Course
The one day Electrical Thermography course will give an overview of FLIR infrared cameras and their practical applications for fault finding and the maintenance of electrical systems and equipment.
The day of infrared training will cover a basic overview of the principles and concepts including Emissivity, T Reflected, Infrared radiation, visible light and applications.
Areas of Study
Areas of study on the Electrical Thermal Camera course include;
- How to setup the thermal imaging camera correctly
- Amps, Voltage, Power Factor, Harmonics, Capacitance, Impedance, Inductance
- OHMS law
- Single Phase
- 3 phase
- Motors & Gearboxes
- Materials and how they behave (Emissivity/ reflection)
- Cables, cabinets and plastics
- Indirect versus direct temp measurement
- SF6 gas detection in principle and why we can detect it
-
Applications from low voltage to high voltage
- Problems you can find with the camera
- What they might look like
- Fault classification criteria, how to classify a fault found using a reliable and repeatable data
- Transformers/ substations
- Safety/ Rules and regulations
- Arc flash
Certification
You will receive a certificate of attendance in the uses of Flir thermography and infrared imaging cameras from ITC Infrared Training & PASS.
Length
This is a 1 day course.
Suitability
This one day electrical thermal imaging training program is designed for new and existing users of Flir Thermal Imaging cameras and is most suited to those who will use the cameras in electrical applications. However, those who deal with preventative maintenance will also find it useful.
