Electrical Distribution boards - UK jayb 12/28/2011
Hello,

Can anyone advise of point me towards a guide on what to look for when thermal imaging an industrial electrical distribution board in the UK. What would the emissivity etc be? I am doing a project and have chosen to research this.

Many thanks in advance

Jay

You could start by looking at the BSRIA guidebooks www.bsria.co.uk

F=focus, D=distance, T=temperature. most common subs have alot of blackend copper, metal, porcelain,and fiber glass. Also depends on how the reflectivity is. is it a new or an old sub? go to any serch engine and type emisivity and it will give you emisivity charts! good luck!!!

Many thanks for the advice, particularly the emissivity tables search engine

Your Welcome!!! also what i do is shoot substations when there is no sun light or early in the morning or in the evenings. less reflectivity the better!!!
