I do work for a company that does thermoscanning, I send my guys out with there techs and we pull panels for them and also do all the repair work (Im a EC), and for servicing 10 peaces of equiptment I charge about $2000 more or less but it may very depending on what the nature of the hot spot shows.
Example: a MCC that has a bunch of loose screws on lugs will be cheeper than a peace of equiptment like a knife switch that needs to have power interupted so I can clean the female and male stabs and get out the old emory cloth and electr clean.
And as far as a maintnence program I am working on a solid exel based templet for various tasks soch as motor pms, and a rotating clock that each peace of equiptment is attached to and comes up based on:
#1 age of equiptment
#2 criticle non criticle status
#3 continuous duty of equiptment etc.
There is some very expensive programs out there (SAP, Maximo,SEIMANS and Allen Bradley has some but there tied to the automation) but if your not locked into a huge $$$ maint contract it wouldent make since to invest in them.
Hope I was helpful.
