Thermal Imaging Inspections in Auckland

Identify electrical hotspots and mechanical issues before they lead to fire, equipment failure or costly downtime

Identify Issues Before They Become Failures

Auckland Thermography provides electrical and mechanical thermal imaging inspections, along with AS/NZS 3019 periodic assessments for commercial buildings and industrial sites across Auckland and New Zealand.

Each inspection includes a clear report with images, priority ratings and practical recommendations. It gives you the information you need to plan maintenance, respond to insurer requests and address the most important issues first.

You’ll deal directly with me from the initial enquiry through to the inspection and report, giving you consistent communication and full context on any findings.

I’m an ITC Certified Thermographer and EWRB Registered Electrician with 20 years’ electrical industry experience. I’ve inspected approximately 70,000 switchboards and control panels over my career, and Auckland Thermography is SiteWise Gold accredited.

Services

Electrical Thermal Imaging

Switchboard thermal imaging can identify overheating caused by overloaded circuits, failing components or poor connections. Finding these issues early can help prevent outages, fire and equipment damage

Mechanical Thermal Imaging

Mechanical thermal imaging checks motors, bearings and other equipment for heat linked to friction, poor lubrication or misalignment. The results help maintenance teams plan repairs and reduce downtime

AS/NZS 3019 Assessments

An AS/NZS 3019 periodic assessment checks the condition and safety of an existing electrical installation. It can help you plan corrective work and respond to an insurer’s request for documented electrical checks

What is Thermal Imaging?

Thermal imaging, also known as infrared thermography, uses an infrared camera to show surface temperature differences. Unusual heat patterns can indicate issues such as overheating electrical connections, overloaded components, worn bearings or restricted cooling.

Inspections are completed while equipment is operating, allowing multiple electrical and mechanical assets to be assessed quickly with minimal disruption.

Benefits of Infrared Thermography

Detect Problems Early

Spot unusual heat in switchboards, motors and other equipment that may indicate developing faults not obvious during routine visual checks

Reduce Operational Risk

Support safer, more reliable operation of critical equipment by identifying overheating that could lead to damage or an unexpected shutdown

Plan Maintenance Efficiently

Use thermal and visual images, priority ratings and practical recommendations to decide what needs attention first and schedule repairs

How It Works

① Scope & schedule

Tell me your site location, inspection purpose, and preferred timeframe. I’ll confirm scope, pricing and availability.

② Inspect & capture evidence

I'll conduct an inspection of nominated assets, capturing thermal and visual images to identify potential faults and areas requiring attention.

③ Report & prioritise

I’ll issue a report with site and asset details, priority ratings, and recommended actions, so you can see what needs attention and plan the next steps.
