Infrared Inspection Training for Utility and Substation Inspections is designed for utility personnel, electrical contractors, substation technicians, reliability engineers, and maintenance professionals responsible for the safe operation of electrical power systems. Using infrared thermography and thermal imaging, inspectors can identify developing electrical faults before they result in equipment failures, service interruptions, or safety hazards. United Infrared offers both online infrared thermography training and in-person infrared thermography classes, providing professionals with the skills needed to perform accurate infrared inspections of utility transmission and distribution equipment.

Electrical substations contain critical assets that require routine condition monitoring to maintain grid reliability and prevent unexpected outages. During Infrared Inspection Training for Utility and Substation Inspections, students learn how to safely inspect transformers, circuit breakers, disconnect switches, bus bars, switchgear, insulators, capacitor banks, relays, current transformers (CTs), voltage transformers (VTs), and overhead electrical connections using professional thermal imaging equipment. The course covers infrared camera operation, emissivity, load considerations, environmental influences, thermal image interpretation, inspection procedures, and report development to help maintenance teams accurately identify overheating connections, deteriorating components, and other abnormal operating conditions.
