Who Needs Electrical Safety Inspections?
OSHA requires employers to provide a safe workplace, and NFPA 70E mandates arc flash labeling on electrical equipment. You need an inspection if: your facility has never had an arc flash study, your electrical labels are missing or outdated, you're seeing signs of overheating (discolored panels, warm breakers), your insurance company requires it, you've had electrical incidents or near-misses, or you're purchasing a commercial or industrial property.

Electrical Safety Inspections FAQs
What is an arc flash study?
An arc flash study calculates the incident energy at each piece of electrical equipment in your facility. This determines the PPE requirements and safe approach distances for workers. It's required by NFPA 70E and OSHA.
How often should electrical inspections be done?
We recommend comprehensive electrical inspections every 3 years for commercial buildings and annually for industrial facilities. Arc flash studies should be updated whenever significant electrical changes are made.
Do you use thermal imaging?
Yes. Infrared thermal imaging detects hot spots in panels, connections, and breakers that aren't visible to the naked eye. Hot spots indicate loose connections, overloaded circuits, or failing equipment — problems that can lead to fires.
Will the inspection shut down my facility?
Most inspection work can be done with equipment energized. Arc flash studies may require brief shutdowns to collect equipment data. We schedule any required outages during off-hours.
