Testing and measurement (T&M) components are a vital solution with diverse applications across the energy value chain. By minimising losses and enhancing operational efficiency, T&M enables utilities to predict failures and prevent unexpected outages. The ability to anticipate faults helps reduce the loss of revenue, time and energy factors that often escalate when issues remain undetected. FLIR offers a comprehensive portfolio of test and measurement (T&M) solutions tailored for the power generation, transmission, substation, and distribution segments.

These solutions play a critical role in reducing transmission and distribution (T&D) losses while optimising maintenance strategies. Advanced thermal imaging and condition monitoring technologies allow utilities to adopt predictive maintenance, ensuring minimal downtime and improved asset life. With a focus on reliability, safety and performance, FLIR’s offerings are helping power utilities build smarter and more resilient infrastructure. T.P. Singh shares insights into the company's approach, highlighting how innovation in testing and measurement is supporting India's energy domain.

How are your innovative, cost-effective tools enhancing safety and efficiency in harsh field conditions?

We are a leading global brand for providing T&M solutions to the power distribution sector, and our products are trusted by multiple transmission companies worldwide. Our advanced solutions are designed to detect faults and enhance operational efficiency. One of our key innovations is a powerful product that can monitor three towers simultaneously to visualise temperature abnormalities, covering the typical 300-meter span between them. From a single tower, users can monitor in all directions, which ensures comprehensive visibility.
