Electrical problems don’t always show themselves until it’s too late. Whether it’s a switchboard running hot or a connection working itself loose, our team can scan your system and tell you exactly what needs attention.
Early Fault Detection.
We scan every switchboard and distribution board to find heat anomalies invisible to the naked eye.
Spot the Strain Early.
Circuits running beyond capacity generate heat long before they trip or fail. We flag these before they cause downtime.
A Leading Fire Cause.
Loose or corroded terminations are a leading cause of electrical fires. Thermal imaging finds them while still a minor repair.
Peace of Mind.
Identifying heat-related faults early significantly reduces the risk of an electrical fire starting in your switchboard or plant room.
Documented Evidence.
Every scan comes with a written report and annotated images, suitable for insurance, audits and maintenance records.
Stay Ahead of Faults.
We help build thermal imaging into a regular maintenance cycle, alongside testing and tagging, so faults are caught on schedule.

Smart Green Electrical recently installed my new electric oven. I was able to make an appointment which fitted in with my schedule and then was informed when the electrician was running 10minutes late which I really appreciated. Despite some difficulties with removal of my old oven due to glue being used during previous installation and then a small discrepancy in height of cabinet they worked until my oven was installed neatly and without mess. Liam then took the time to assist with connection of my new oven with the product app on my phone. I was very impressed with the quality of the service provided and would definitely use this service againPosted on Google![]()

Thermal Imaging Questions Answered
Have questions about thermal imaging? Our skilled Geelong electrical team is ready to offer precise, professional guidance to help you protect your business.
Electrical thermal imaging uses an infrared camera to scan switchboards and electrical equipment for abnormal heat. Hot-spots often signal loose connections, overloaded circuits or failing components long before a visible fault appears.
Most commercial and industrial sites benefit from an annual thermal imaging scan, with higher-load or older switchboards checked every six months. Insurers and compliance frameworks increasingly expect regular scans as standard practice.
No. Thermal imaging is non-invasive and is carried out while the switchboard is live and under normal load, which is when hot-spots are actually visible. There is no need to shut down your business or interrupt operations.
A thermal imaging report includes annotated infrared images of each hot-spot found, a description of the likely cause, a risk rating, and clear recommendations for repair. It is suitable for insurance, compliance and maintenance records.
Yes. Most electrical fires start with a loose connection or overloaded circuit that heats up over time. Thermal imaging finds these hot-spots early, giving you the chance to repair the fault before it escalates into a fire or outage.
Some insurers require or strongly recommend periodic thermal imaging as part of a business’s risk management and preventative maintenance obligations. A dated thermal imaging report is often accepted as evidence of due diligence.
Testing and tagging checks the safety of individual portable appliances. Thermal imaging scans the fixed electrical infrastructure, such as switchboards and distribution boards, for heat-related faults. Most commercial sites need both as part of a complete preventative maintenance plan.
A standard switchboard scan typically takes 30 to 60 minutes per board, depending on size and complexity. Larger commercial or industrial sites with multiple distribution boards may take longer, and we will confirm timing when scoping your site.
Yes. Smart Green Electrical carries out thermal imaging inspections across Geelong, Ocean Grove, Drysdale, Barwon Heads, Torquay, Leopold, Point Lonsdale, Queenscliff, the Bellarine Peninsula and the Surf Coast.
