The evidence your insurer accepts

A standalone survey & report, or a Visual Inspection and Limited Testing Certificate of Periodic Verification under AS/NZS 3019. Either way you get documentation that stands up as evidence of a preventive maintenance programme.

  • Focus maintenance & repairs where needed now, not after a failure
  • No disruption to your operation while we survey
  • Lower risk on your account, which can mean lower premiums

A five year international insurance study put the return at about four dollars saved for every dollar spent, in losses avoided.

Inside the report

Anyone can point a thermal camera at a switchboard. Only a trained expert can analyse and identify which anomalies matter, in language your electrician, your board, and your insurer all understand.

  • Thermal and visual images of every component, side by side
  • Severity, so you know what is urgent and what can wait
  • A plain language recommendation for each item
  • A record you can produce at your next audit

Reports are with you within two business days.

Guaranteed independent

We do not sell or repair the equipment we inspect, so nothing in our reports is there to win us work.

Most thermal imaging in NZ is offered by electrical contractors on the side. When the company that finds the fault also quotes to fix it, the report is a sales document. Ours is not.

We carry thermography-specific insurance, written for this work rather than general liability.

No vested interest and no conflict of interest, because we do not do remedial work. Guaranteed to comply with local and international standards and regulations, carried out by fully certified Level 2 operators.

How a survey runs on your site

Electrical thermography is performed while equipment is running, because that is when abnormal heat shows. Nothing is switched off, so there is no interruption to your business.

You confirm the plan

A survey map of the areas and equipment to be covered, sent before we arrive.

We survey under load

Safety first. Access and capture visual, thermal, and measurements across each component. Reassemble, check, and site left clean.

You hear the urgent items that day

A verbal report to your site contact before we leave. No waiting on paperwork.

You get the written report

Every finding classified against internationally recognised standards.

Every survey builds on the last

We keep a profile of your equipment, so next year is compared against this year rather than started from scratch. Deteriorating equipment is caught before failure.

  • One reporting standard across every site you manage
  • Year on year comparison on the same equipment
  • A clear line on which assets need budget next year
