Prevent failures. Protect workers. Pass every audit.
Because unseen risks shouldn’t become unplanned disasters
Lumearis inspections identify and neutralize hazards before they trigger downtime, fines, or injuries. We help Quebec and Ontario industries identify, quantify, and prevent the electrical risks that lead to fires, downtime, fines, and injuries — with inspections and studies aligned to NFPA 70B / 70E.
NFPA 70B compliance, preventive safety, and measurable ROI
20 Industrial Electrical Risks We Help You Avoid
In industrial operations, one overlooked fault can cascade into catastrophic losses. CNESST audits, insurance claims, and unplanned outages all trace back to risks that could have been detected earlier.
Lumearis brings an FMEA mindset — detecting, rating, and neutralizing risks before they escalate.
Certified. Compliant. Trusted.
Every Lumearis inspection is backed by the certifications that regulators, insurers, and auditors recognize. We are the only provider in Quebec and Ontario delivering inspections aligned to NFPA 70B / NFPA 70E.

-
Energy efficiency gains: Thermographic inspections reveal overloaded circuits, failing motors, and insulation gaps — cutting wasted energy by up to 30%.
-
GHG reduction: Lower energy demand directly reduces Scope 2 emissions, supporting Canada’s net-zero 2050 commitments.
-
Asset life extension: Preventive maintenance avoids premature replacements, reducing e-waste and embedded carbon.
-
Policy alignment: Reporting structured for ISO 50002, CNESST preventive requirements, and ESA energy programs.
What makes Lumearis different from other inspection providers?
Lumearis is the only company in Quebec and Ontario offering inspections and studies aligned with NFPA 70B (preventive maintenance) and NFPA 70E (worker protection). Our reports are audit-ready, insurer-approved, and bilingual (French/English) for full compliance with CNESST and ESA.
Will inspections disrupt operations?
No. All thermographic inspections are non-contact and performed while systems remain energized. For sensitive environments, we also schedule after-hours or weekend work to minimize impact.
Do different industries require different inspection programs?
Yes.
Industrial: Focus on high-load equipment, transformers, motors, and arc flash hazards.
Commercial: Tenant safety, insurance compliance, and HVAC/building efficiency.
Institutional: CNESST/ESA compliance, bilingual reporting, defensible audit documentation.
Residential: Electrical safety, moisture detection, insulation verification for buyers and landlords.
Data Centers: Uptime reliability, UPS/switchgear scans, cooling efficiency, and audit readiness.
How do Lumearis inspections create ROI?
On average, clients achieve a 15:1 ROI by:
Preventing 85% of equipment failures
Cutting unplanned maintenance by 30%
Avoiding >$500,000 in potential liability per arc flash incident
Reducing insurance premiums through lower risk scores
Do inspections also help with sustainability goals?
Yes. Inspections improve energy efficiency by identifying wasted loads and cooling inefficiencies. This directly supports Quebec’s Plan pour une économie verte 2030, Ontario’s Energy Efficiency Framework, and ISO 50002 reporting — while reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
How often should inspections be performed?
Industrial & Commercial: Annually, or semi-annually for high-risk operations
Institutional: Annually, with quarterly checks for hospitals or critical facilities
Residential: At purchase, sale, or every 3–5 years
Data Centers: Annually minimum; semi-annual or quarterly for UPS and critical cooling
