    The document discusses NETA's thermal severity testing criteria for direct temperature measurements of electrical equipment. The criteria classify thermal anomalies as a major deficiency, deficiency, probable deficiency, or possible deficiency depending on the temperature observed above ambient or surface temperature. A thermal anomaly for hospital or medical applications may require different priority for repair. Neither ITC nor FLIR endorse the criteria but present it as one classification system used for thermal testing.

    Here is the NETA (International Electrical Testing Association)'s thermal severity testing criteria

    that is used for Direct temperature measurements.(Indirect temperature measurements should be


    done on a case-by-case basis).
    Classifications:
    Major Deficiency = Shut Down / Repair Immediately
    Deficiency = Repair ASAP
    Probable Deficiency = Repair at next Shut Down
    Possible Deficiency = Repair / Monitor Condition

    Of course, the thermal anomaly may have a different priority if powering hospital / medical
    applications.
    Neither ITC nor FLIR Systems, Inc. endorses its use, but present it as one of many severity
    criteria classifications in use today.
