Three of the following are found with a thermal imager during an audit. The exception is

  • A.a loose or corroded electrical joint
  • B.missing or wet insulation on a steam line
  • C.a steam trap passing live steam
  • D.the power factor of a feeder

Answer: D

Correct answer: the power factor of a feeder

Power factor is an electrical relationship between voltage and current and produces no thermal signature at all; it is read with a power analyser. The other three are all classic thermal imaging finds - a hot joint, a cold or wet patch on lagging, and a trap running at line temperature on its downstream side because it is passing live steam.
