Identify Excessive Heat and Detect Electrical Issues
We offer electrical infrared thermographic surveys in accordance with NFPA 70B across the United States
NFPA 70B is a standard that outlines preventive maintenance practices for electrical systems to enhance safety and reliability in various facilities.
Recent Changes
In 2023, NFPA 70B transitioned from a "Recommended Practice" to a "Standard," introducing mandatory language for electrical maintenance programs. This change aims to provide practical safeguards and ensure that electrical systems are properly maintained according to industry standards. The new standard aligns closely with NFPA 70E, which focuses on electrical safety in the workplace, emphasizing that even well-installed equipment must be maintained to ensure safety.
Bayou State Inspections uses only Level III thermographers. Survey services are based out of Lafayette, LA.
Our surveys are performed by Level III thermographers using 1024 x 768 resolution and 30mK thermal sensitivity cameras. The first sign that electrical components are failing is excessive heat. When we inspect your building's electrical components with an infrared sensor, we'll look for abnormally high temperatures that identify the need for replacement parts or electrical maintenance. We can identify loose connections, over-loaded circuits and induced currents.
Contact us today to schedule an electrical infrared thermographic survey and inspection.
James Yaeger Holds a Level III Certified Infrared Thermography Certification from the country's leading Thermography Institute as well as an Accredited ACAC Certification. The American Council for Accredited Certification (ACAC) is pleased to announce that its Council-certified Environmental Thermography Consultant (CETC) designation has been accredited by the Council for Engineering and Scientific Specialty Boards (CESB). CESB is a nationally recognized, independent accreditation body founded in 1991 to provide standards for engineering-related certification programs. CESB-accredited programs must follow strict guidelines for integrity and independence in their policies and operations. CESB accreditation is a mark of superior quality and distinguishes well known certification marks. The ACAC's Council programs employ psychometrically rated examinations that test industry knowledge and also require verified field experience of each certification candidate. Council certifications are board-awarded by a nationwide panel of industry peers for a period of two years, after which each certificant must undergo a rigorous recertification process. CESB accreditation is the latest evidence that ACAC certifications continue to set the standard in the industry for integrity, credibility and independence.
