Electrical Thermal Imaging - Brisbane
Radiometric switchboard inspections across greater Brisbane — towers and tenancies in the CBD and inner north, hospitals and aged care, hotels, and the data and processing facilities out through the industrial belt. Boards stay live, the site keeps running, and the report lands the next business day.
Electrical Asset Protection Is Our Focus.
Highpoint Solutions deliver electrical thermography services throughout Brisbane. We are your go-to thermal imaging specialists for all things "thermal". A large component of what we do on a daily basis are annual thermographic inspections of electrical switchboards and components. Using extremely high-spec infrared cameras (minimum FLIR T660), we're able to effectively identify potential electrical faults in a matter of minutes! Many of our previous findings, if left undetected, had the potential for catastrophic failure (I.e. fire outbreak).
Our clients range from small commercial property managers to large government departments and everything else in between. There is no task too big or small for our highly trained and experienced team.
Being a family owned company based on the Sunshine Coast, we take the time to get to know our clients, their specific requirements, and some of the maintenance & compliance challenges they face. Our focus has always been on adding exceptional value, delivering innovative solutions, and building long lasting business relationships. At Highpoint Solutions, we want you to become our client for life.

Where we work in Brisbane
Greater Brisbane is a short run down the highway from our Eumundi base, and it is the area we attend most often outside the Sunshine Coast. A switchboard survey is booked around your site, not ours: after-hours and weekend work is common where a board sits in a tenancy, a plant room or a ward that cannot be disturbed during business hours.

Brisbane Thermal Imaging Applications
The building stock in Brisbane sets the work apart. High-rise tenancies mean dozens of distribution boards spread over many floors and a lift booking to reach them. Health and hospitality sites run around the clock, so the survey has to happen without an outage. And the sheds through Rocklea, Archerfield and Wacol carry heat, dust and vibration that push connections toward failure faster than an air-conditioned plant room ever will.

Why Use Thermal Imaging?
Thermal imaging detects electrical faults not visible to the naked eye. Our thermographers can detect faults before they become an issue.
Thermal imaging performed on electrical assets is an effective risk mitigation tool that when performed annually, can significantly reduce risk and ultimately save money in the long run.
Thermal imaging included in your preventative maintenance program helps ensure the safety and efficiency of your operations.
Thermal imaging has revolutionised predictive maintenance inspection programs: By detecting problems and scheduling repairs before a major failure occurs, productivity, profitability and workplace safety are all increased.
We find electrical problems BEFORE they become a drama!
What a Brisbane survey costs
Boards must be live and carrying at least 40% of normal load — a fault only generates heat when current is flowing through it, so nothing is switched off for the inspection. Every anomaly is compared against its reference phase and against ambient, then classified to a NETA severity band with a defined repair timeframe. The full method, the severity table and worked examples of real findings are set out on the main electrical thermography page.
