Thermal Scanning

First Energy Solar Solutions

The Vodacom Century City fire highlights fire safety for PV systems. In light of this public incident, First Energy Solar Solutions have invested in a thermal drone.

Once our installations are done, we will run a thermal scan of the solar panels and solar panel wiring. This service is FREE, included as a value service for all new solar power installations.

We’ll also offer thermal scanning as a service on existing systems**. We look for heat variance in solar panels, which indicates dead cells or possible shading. We also look for hot spots in the cabling to identify poor connections. Poor connections are a fire risk. Once identified, we will work with you to design a remedy.
** Contact us for scanning service fee of existing installations, and to arrange an inspection.
