How Hot Is An Electrical Connection Supposed To Be? |
Connections in your electric system should appear the same when viewed with an infrared camera. An anomaly like the one on the left, represents a loose fuse clip connection. These types of problems also cause deterioration of the conductive materials and inhibit the flow of electricity. As a result heat is generated. Excessive temperatures cause fires! Do you know how many "hot-spots" are in your facility? |
