VAMPA and OT23: electrical prevention starts with what you cannot see

OT23 application deadline: 01/03/2027

An electrical panel can keep working while a connection overheats. Identifying the problem early helps protect people, equipment and business continuity.

See the heat, plan the work

VAMPA is Repower's thermal imaging analysis service: it remotely detects abnormal temperatures in electrical equipment. The report interprets the findings and identifies any issues and maintenance priorities. New systems and machinery also deserve attention: a poorly made connection or excessive load can become apparent during operation.

The OT23 2027 opportunity

INAIL rewards improvements in safety carried out in 2026. Thermal imaging falls under item A-4.1, type B: reaching the threshold requires two separate type B measures or one type A measure. VAMPA can therefore form part of a programme to be checked with the safety manager and whoever handles the company's INAIL account.

The benefit is a reduction in the average premium rate, subject to eligibility requirements and acceptance of the application. After the first two years it ranges from 28% to 5%, depending on the worker-years registered under the PAT; during the first two years it is 8%. Actual savings must be calculated for the company's insurance account.

What is needed to take part

• Compliance with contribution and insurance obligations and with health and safety requirements.
• Technical report signed and stamped by a qualified professional or technical manager, explaining the reasons for the analysis and defining the survey conditions.
• 2026 survey and report: operator certified to at least Level 1 and report author to at least Level 2 under UNI EN ISO 9712, TT method; visible and infrared images with date and time.
• Records of any corrective actions and of the other measure needed to complete the programme.

Dates for your diary

31 December 2026: complete the measures relating to the year. 1 March 2027: the deadline stated by INAIL for online applications with supporting documentation. Scheduling the survey in autumn leaves time for any corrections.

INAIL FAQs allow the analysis to be repeated annually with updated documentation, including photovoltaic components. The scope of the VAMPA service must be agreed for each installation.
