Infrared Thermography

The problem below is from a substation for a large distillery.  The environment is dirty and corrosive, which often causes electrical anomalies.  In this case a poor connection at the switch is causing a massive amount of heat to travel the length of the conductor.  At the time of the inspection, the wire was corroded and the insulation was breaking down due to the intense heat.  A failure would interrupt the entire operation of the distillery resulting in loss of product and expensive downtime that is difficult to caclulate.  It is safe to say that this problem alone paid for the infrared inspection many times over.
