Abstract

Infrared thermography is one of the most valuable and cost-effective diagnostic techniques for predictive maintenance on electrical systems. For the installations, the thermography can identify major problems, which if left unattended could lead to breakdowns. The result thermal images depend upon operator skills, inspection technique, and weather conditions. When the thermographer is applied to remote monitoring, the conditions of the systems are not perfectly analyzed because operators are hard to know the weather effects of the installed place. Therefore, this paper defines the effect by weather conditions these factors will influence the final results. The purpose of this paper is to define the weather effects that a thermographer needs to consider for successful condition analysis.
