prevention is key

Why Thermography Is Crucial for Electrical Recertification?

In Miami and Boca Raton, commercial buildings with electrical systems of 400 Amps or more are required to undergo regular infrared thermography inspections as part of the recertification process.

Thermal imaging is essential for detecting overheating, faulty fuses, and other electrical anomalies that could pose fire risks or lead to costly downtime.

Our team uses state-of-the-art infrared cameras to perform non-invasive, highly accurate inspections, providing detailed reports on your building’s electrical health. By detecting potential issues early, you can address them before they become major failures, keeping your building safe and compliant with Miami building recertification requirements.

What are Florida Building Recertification Requirements?

The approaching deadline for Florida building recertification can cause stress and uncertainty for property owners. Critical inspections are required at the 25-year, 30-year, and every 10 years thereafter

Understanding the requirements for both structural and electrical systems is vital to maintaining compliance and building safety. Recertification inspections focus on ensuring your electrical systems

meet the current Florida Building Code and the National Electrical Code (NEC)

Our Level II thermographers handle the required Electrical Infrared inspection, ensuring that your building is compliant without the need for additional third-party sign-offs.

What is a Level II Electrical Thermography?

For buildings undergoing 40-year recertification with electrical systems operating at 400 amps or more, a Level II thermography inspection is required. This inspection covers critical equipment such as: busways, switchgear, disconnects, VFDS, starters, control panels, transfer switches, gutters, transformers, panelboards, and more

Our certified Level II thermographers use advanced thermal imaging to detect potential issues like hot spots, loose connections, and overloaded circuits, ensuring the safety and longevity of your building’s electrical infrastructure.

What is the Florida Building Safety Act (Senate Bill 4-D)

The Florida Building Safety Act (Senate Bill 4-D), passed in May 2022, mandates several key safety requirements for buildings,
including:

-Milestone Inspections: Required for buildings over three stories tall, with the first inspection by December 31, 2024, and subsequent inspections every 10 years.

-Structural Integrity Reserve Studies: Reserve funds are required for future repairs to common areas, with visual inspections performed by a licensed architect or engineer.

-Roofing System Repairs: Only the section of the roof being repaired must comply with current Florida Building Code standards.

What is a Milestone Inspection?

A milestone inspection is a assessment of a building’s structural integrity, performed by a licensed architect or engineer. These inspections ensure the safety of critical components like load-bearing walls, foundations, plumbing, and electrical systems

Milestone inspections are required every 10 years after a building reaches 30 years of age and are crucial for preventative maintenance

to avoid costly repairs.

CPFM Enterprises partners with local engineering firms to provide proper certification with qualified engineer supervision and official sign-offs.

What is Level II Thermography?

Level II Thermography is an advanced certification for thermographers who specialize in electrical system inspections. These professionals use thermal imaging to detect thermal anomalies such as loose connections, overloaded switches, and

faulty components

Level II thermographers play an essential role in 40-year recertification and preventative maintenance.

What is the Importance of Infrared Calibration and Using High-Quality Equipment?

At our company, we use commercial-grade infrared cameras, ensuring that all equipment is properly calibrated to account for critical
factors like reflected temperature, moisture, and ambient temperature. The proper calibration process, combined with advanced camera sensitivity and accuracy, ensures reliable and precise data during inspections. By utilizing high-quality equipment and correct calibration methods, we minimize errors and provide accurate information to our customers, preventing misreading and enhancing the safety and compliance of your building.

What are the key points to understand when reading a Level II thermography report?

-Temperature readings: Higher temperatures in the report indicate potential electrical issues.

-Comparative analysis: The inspector compares the temperature of components under similar load conditions to identify anomalies.

-Severity levels: Findings are typically categorized as Minor, Important, Serious or Critical depending on the temperature difference and potential failure risk.

-Visual indicators: Thermal images visually depict hot spots using areas of higher color intensity.

What are the common issues highlighted by abnormal heat signatures (thermography inspection)?

-Loose connections: Appear as distinct hot spots at terminal connections due to increased resistance.

-Overloaded circuits: Entire breakers or wires may show elevated temperatures when overloaded.

-Damaged insulation: Localized hot spots on wires can indicate insulation damage. Faulty components:

-Defective switches, breakers, or motors may generate abnormal heat. -Imbalanced phases: In a three-phase system, uneven load distribution can cause hot spots on specific conductors.

How to explain the severity levels in a thermography inspection report?

The severity of thermal anomalies is classified into
different levels to guide the necessary actions:

Level 4 – Minor (Possible Deficiency): These conditions show higher-than-normal utilization but do not require immediate action. While the temperature differences are small, they warrant further investigation and yearly inspections to prevent future issues from escalating.

Level 3 Important (Probable Deficiency): These indicate probable deficiencies that could affect system reliability. Corrective measures should be scheduled, and semi-annual inspections are recommended to monitor the components and address potential problems proactively.

Level 2 Serious: Immediate corrective action is required as these conditions indicate an imminent risk of failure. Frequent inspections, such as quarterly, should be conducted to ensure system safety and prevent further deterioration.

Level 1 Critical: Major discrepancies that pose a significant risk of failure or safety hazards. Repairs must be made immediately, and continuous monitoring is essential to confirm that the issues have been fully resolved and the system remains safe.
