Isolator Audit App turns isolator audits into a scored, repeatable programme. Auditors score each isolator against weighted criteria, attach photo evidence, and track corrective actions to verified closure across every site. Managers compare isolator audit scores across sites and track every corrective action to closure.
Isolator Audit App runs a scored isolator audit covering contact condition and alignment, operating mechanism and linkages, earth switch and interlocks, position indication, and insulators and terminals, with a photo and a sign-off required on each point. Without a system, isolator findings live on paper and in chat. An isolator fault such as misaligned or pitted contacts slips through. An audit then means rebuilding isolator evidence from folders.
Isolator Audit App keeps one record per isolator and per site, with photo evidence and a named sign-off. Each isolator finding is tracked to verified closure. Substation maintenance teams see isolator completion and overdue actions across the energy & utilities portfolio. Every isolator record proves what was checked, when, and by whom.
What to Include in an Isolator Audit App?
A comprehensive isolator audit covers the key areas that affect operations and compliance. Audit isolator programmes with weighted scoring, photo evidence, and corrective action tracking across sites. Your audit should include sections for contact condition and alignment, operating mechanism and linkages, and earth switch and interlocks, evidence capture, pass/fail or scoring criteria, corrective action assignment, and sign-off, so that nothing is missed and every audit finding is traceable.
How to Use Isolator Audit App
A scored audit only helps if every auditor scores the same way. Follow these steps to run an isolator audit:
Open the isolator audit template, which carries weighted criteria and a scoring scheme.
Score each isolator against the criteria and attach photo evidence for any non-conformance.
Let the app calculate the section and overall isolator score so the site is comparable to others.
Raise a corrective action for each failed isolator criterion with an owner and due date.
Sign off the isolator audit. The scorecard and branded report generate automatically.
What Does an Isolator Audit Cover?
An isolator audit scores condition against electrical safety standards and switching and isolation procedures, checking contact condition and alignment, operating mechanism and linkages, earth switch and interlocks, position indication, insulators and terminals, and hot spots on thermography. Each isolator finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the failing point. So the isolator audit becomes a traceable evidence pack, not an ageing spreadsheet.

Common Defects It Surfaces
Misaligned or pitted contacts

How Isolator Audit App Scores an Isolator Audit
Step 1
Score Consistently
Weighted criteria are built into the isolator audit template.
Step 2
Evidence Every Finding
Auditors attach photo proof for each isolator non-conformance.
Step 3
Compare and Act
Scorecards rank sites and failed isolator criteria become corrective actions.

What Isolator Teams Fix When Audits Are Scored the Same Way Everywhere
Isolator work breaks down the moment evidence leaves the form. These are the problems Isolator Audit App is built to remove, and what the team gets back when it does.
Isolator issues get logged, then quietly forgotten
A failed item is noted during a routine audit. Nobody owns it, no date is set, and the next audit finds the same problem on the same isolator. The isolator issue is logged, not closed.
Problem
Failed isolator items noted but never assigned to anyone
No due date on an isolator fix, so nothing is ever overdue
The isolator fix is marked done with no proof it happened
Solution
Every failed isolator item becomes an owned corrective action
Closure needs an isolator verification photo before sign-off
Overdue actions escalate automatically
Isolator data is scattered across spreadsheets, photos, and chat
Some isolator records sit in Excel, some in a WhatsApp group, some in a folder of photos. There is no single source of truth for the isolator, so every isolator question takes an hour and three people to answer.
Problem
Isolator records split across Excel, chat, and photo folders
No single trusted version of the isolator record
Answering a simple isolator question takes hours
Solution
One system of record for every isolator check and finding
Every isolator photo and action tied to its record
Search any site or isolator and get an answer instantly
Every auditor scores the isolator audit differently, so sites cannot be compared
One auditor is strict, another is lenient, and a third skips sections. The isolator audit scores come back, but leadership cannot tell whether a low score means a weak site or a tough auditor.
Problem
Isolator scoring depends on which auditor showed up
Isolator sections get skipped with no record
Isolator scores are not comparable across sites
Solution
Weighted isolator criteria baked into the audit template
Mandatory isolator sections, so nothing is skipped
Comparable isolator scores that roll up across the estate
Frequently Asked Questions
What does Isolator Audit App check on an isolator audit?
Isolator Audit App runs a scored isolator audit against electrical safety standards and switching and isolation procedures, checking contact condition and alignment, operating mechanism and linkages, earth switch and interlocks, position indication, and insulators and terminals. Each finding is logged with a photo, a severity, and the point it fails, then routed to an owner with a deadline. It stays open until a reviewer verifies the fix, so the audit becomes a traceable evidence pack for substation maintenance teams rather than an ageing spreadsheet. Because scoring is built into the template, two sites assessed by two people produce numbers you can compare fairly.
Which isolator defects matter most, and what happens if they are missed?
The audit targets the isolator failures that matter most: misaligned or pitted contacts, mechanism stiffness or failure, interlock defeat, and false position indication. Left unchecked, a fault such as misaligned or pitted contacts can mean downtime, a safety incident, or a failed audit, so every finding becomes an owned task with a deadline. It stays open until photo proof of the repair is reviewed, and repeat problems are flagged so substation maintenance teams fix the cause rather than the symptom. Prioritising by severity means the most serious issues are handled first, not whichever was reported loudest.
Which standards does Isolator Audit App support for isolator work?
Isolator Audit App keeps isolator checks aligned to electrical safety standards and switching and isolation procedures. The photos each standard expects are required fields, so an incomplete check cannot be closed and a gap is caught before an assessor finds it. When a review is due, substation maintenance teams pull the records for the site in scope with one search instead of rebuilding them from folders. Retention and history stay searchable, so proof remains defensible at any point, not only on the day of an audit.
Can teams run isolator checks offline and across multiple sites?
Yes. Isolator Audit App is offline-first: teams complete isolator checks on iOS or Android with no signal, capturing photos and the evidence each check requires in the field. Each record syncs automatically when the connection returns, with its timestamp intact, and the same template runs on every site. So substation maintenance teams get a live view of what is complete, overdue, or failing per location, and a weak connection in a remote or low-signal area never costs a round or loses a photo.
What evidence proves an isolator audit was completed?
Every completed isolator audit carries contact condition photo, interlock test note, and thermographic image, a GPS location, a timestamp, and a named sign-off. Because the evidence is captured during the round rather than typed up afterwards, substation maintenance teams can show exactly what was checked, when, and by whom. When an assessor or client asks, the record exports in seconds as a branded PDF or a searchable history, so proof never depends on someone remembering where a photo was saved or which folder holds last quarter's records.
