Infrared scanning of a ground well shows all is OK, but there is a budding induction issue that will eventually cause a problem. Infrared scanning is simply not enough and anyone who bases their entire electrical assessment on infrared is cutting corners that will leave you vulnerable.
We use infrared technology in specific situations. One use is for displaying the resultant heat caused by wiring errors, but this is only to check if the situation is dire and needs immediate emergency level attention.
If you have a home inspector who only uses infrared for detecting wiring errors, the chances are that they will miss 95% or more of all wiring errors. This is because the heat generated by a loose termination, incorrect gauge for the load, or other wiring issues may not present themselves until long after you have had the inspection.
Also, magnetic fields can fester for years before they generate enough heat to present a significant infrared reading. So, in conclusion, if you have someone inspect your wiring with only an infrared tool, then know that this is an inadequate assessment of your electrical system and you are leaving yourself and your family vulnerable to living with uncorrected wiring errors, unsolved magnetic radiation, and the potential for a shock and fire hazard after the inspector has left your property.
Again, you want to only hire a Building Biology® Institute Certified EMRS, Professional Electromagnetic Radiation Specialist. An EMRS is trained to properly identify, assess, and provide solutions to your electrician for correcting any wiring error issue.
