Utility Asset Inspections

Utility Asset Inspections are essential to maintaining the safety, reliability, and operational continuity of electrical infrastructure. DDP Technology provides comprehensive inspection solutions that identify issues early, verify structural and electrical integrity, and maintain compliance with regulatory standards.

Inspection Methods

Our process uses solid CO₂ pellets or shavings blasted through an insulated wand under high pressure:
Infrared Thermography

Identifies hotspots, overheating components, and connection failures.

Ultrasonic Testing

Detects partial discharge, arcing, and internal mechanical faults.

CO₂ Dry Ice Cleaning

Safely removes contaminants that reduce insulation performance.

Visual Assessment

Identifies corrosion, wear, hardware damage, and environmental impacts.

GPS / GIS Asset Mapping

Records precise asset locations for accurate inventory and records.

Utility Pole Testing

Assesses structural integrity using resistography and physical evaluation.

Inspection Scope

Our inspections cover a wide range of utility assets, including:

  • Substations and switchgear
  • Transformers and breakers
  • Utility poles and overhead lines
  • Vault rooms and underground systems
  • Transmission and distribution equipment
Each assessment is tailored to the environment, system type, and operational requirements.

Strengthen Reliability and Reduce Risk

Maintain system performance, prevent unexpected failures, and ensure compliance with a proactive inspection program.

Compliance and Verification

Our inspection procedures align with utility and regulatory requirements, including adherence to Ontario Energy Board (OEB) standards and safety guidelines.

We verify:

  • Correct installation practices
  • Equipment tagging and pole numbering
  • Accurate condition documentation
  • Lifecycle and maintenance prioritization

Detailed Reporting

All inspection results are compiled into structured reports that include:
  • Condition summaries
  • Visual documentation
  • Identified deficiencies
  • Recommended corrective actions
  • Maintenance prioritization guidance
Our inspection procedures align with utility and regulatory requirements, including adherence to Ontario Energy Board (OEB) standards and safety guidelines.
