FLIR Solutions for 2023 NFPA 70B Standards
Keeping You Safe with Thermal Inspections
Protecting electrical maintenance pros is a high priority for the National Fire Protection Association: that's why 2023 NFPA 70B mandates thermal inspections every six months for critical electrical equipment that could endanger personnel.
As the world leader in infrared thermography, Teledyne FLIR offers the total solution for meeting NFPA standards, maintaining safety, and avoiding any potential liability. From professional thermal cameras to reporting/routing software, training, and expert advice, we'll help ensure a successful thermography program.
3 Key Takeaways
The updated guidance outlines specific steps inspection programs must follow, including those governing the use of thermography to identify temperature differences, known as “Delta T” or ΔT. To meet 2023 regulations these steps are required.
Electrical inspectors need access to a thermal imaging camera capable of measuring the ΔT of similar electrical components under similar loading

Inspectors must be properly trained and qualified to use the thermal camera
Inspectors need the appropriate reporting tools in order to document their findings as required—specifically noting the ΔT between their target and a reference area
