Certified Thermal Electrician™ – Thermal Imaging for Electricians

See the Heat. Stop the Failure.
Become a Certified Thermal Electrician™

The Certified Thermal Electrician™ Program is the first thermography certification built exclusively for electricians. You’ll learn to identify hot connections, overloaded conductors, loose lugs, unbalanced phases, and real electrical failures before they turn into shutdowns, callbacks, or fire hazards.

This isn’t a generic camera class — this is electrical diagnostics powered by thermal imaging.

Why It Matters

Electrical Systems Fail Thermally Before They Fail Visually

Most electrical failures begin as heat — long before discoloration or visible damage. Thermal imaging lets electricians find problems early, but only when they understand what the heat means electrically.

Catch Hot Spots Early

Loose lugs, overloads, imbalance, and failing terminations show thermally first.

Reduce Liability

Provide customers with visual proof of hidden issues.

Increase Your Value

Thermal expertise separates good electricians from great ones.
Every electrician should know what “too hot” means.
This program shows you how to measure it, document it, and explain it with authority.

FAQ

Common Questions

Do I need a camera before starting?
No — we teach how to choose the right one for electrical thermography.
Is it for residential or commercial electricians?
Both. Thermal patterns apply to all electrical systems.
Why is this better than generic thermography classes?
Because this program is designed specifically for electricians, not general building inspectors.
