If you own a home or a business, you should already know that at some point, you will need to hire an electrician in cityname to fix electrical issues and maintain your property's wiring systems. Unfortunately, many people forego certified, experienced electricians to save money. The reality is, trying to fix an electrical issue in your home or business is no small task and often costs more money than hiring a professional. Working with electricity can be dangerous to your property and, more importantly, your health.
It might seem like a good idea to try a DIY approach or call your "do it all" local handyman, but going pro will save you time and money when it comes to serious projects like thermal imaging and three-phase panel installations. Think about it: why spend money buying expensive supplies and countless hours watching electrical repair videos when there's a good chance you'll need professional help in the end? Many DIY electricians have good intentions but often end up damaging electrical systems worse than before.
At Engineered Electrical Solutions, we get the job done right the first time, so you can focus on enjoying life while we fix your electrical problem. We bring the same level of quality and reliability to every job we perform, whether it's a routine safety inspection or a whole home electrical installation.

Any homeowner with a little confidence can open their YouTube app and search for DIY fixes for residential electrical problems. To be fair, many minor fixes in the home don't require a pro. With that said, electrical work is not something you should tackle on your own. Trying to perform an electrical repair on your own can be counterproductive at best and fatal at worst. In fact, around 400 people are electrocuted at home every year, and almost half of those result in deaths.
Why put yourself and your family at risk when Engineered Electrical Solutions can get the job done safely and effectively for you?
Our expert electricians only work with the best materials available and provide a three-year guarantee on all labor - no questions asked. We never
compromise quality for time and always give our clients realistic schedules to accommodate their busy lives.

electrician to help.Some of our most common residential electrical services include:

Installing a new electrical panel or upgrading your current one can be a great way to protect your home from electrical issues. It controls the entire electrical system of your home and, when properly installed and maintained, can last for years without problems. Replacing or updating your electrical panel can prevent short-circuiting and overloaded circuits and offer features like arc fault protection.
If your electrical panel seems to be malfunctioning, don't try to troubleshoot the mishap by yourself. At Engineered Electrical Solutions, our team will come to your home to inspect your electrical panel's wiring, so you don' have to. Once we diagnose the problem, we'll offer suggestions based on your needs and budget.
An electrical safety inspection is essentially a thorough examination of your home's electrical system. Using National Electric Code guidelines, our residential safety inspectors will examine your home's electrical systems, wiring, and components (like appliances) to ensure they meet safety standards. Once we're done, your electrical inspector will give you a thorough checklist to look over, including electrical problems that need attention ASAP. We will also suggest areas of improvement and possible areas where upgrades are needed. In our experience, homeowners need electrical safety inspections when they:
High-tech appliances, kitchen gadgets, and computers are all vulnerable to power surges caused by lightning storms. When too much electricity runs through your home's connecting wires, it can fry the circuits in your most expensive electronics. Since many professionals in today's society work from home, losing critical documents and files can be catastrophic.
That's why it's a good idea to consider whole-home surge protection. Surge protection for your home suppresses fluctuating power by diverting excess electricity to a ground wire. If you're interested in learning more about surge protection for your home, call our office today to learn more about the options we can install for you.
Having a reliable electrician on hand that you can trust with electrical repairs is of utmost importance when you own a business in South Carolina. For years, Engineered Electrical Solutions has provided business owners with the most effective electrical repair and installation services in the Lowcountry. Our team is adept at assisting businesses of all sizes, from small "mom and pop" shops to industrial plants and everything in between.

Modern businesses count on energy-efficient electricity to help run their day-to-day operations. If you need your electrical systems to run smoothly so you can stay focused on building your business, count on Engineered Electrical Solutions to be there when you need us the most.
A few of our most popular commercial and industrial electrical services include but are not limited to:
Commercial and industrial-sized buildings are large and complex by the nature of their construction. By proxy, commercial buildings have complicated wiring and electrical systems. Electrical work in the commercial market is best left to experienced, licensed professionals. If you're looking for the very best commercial electricians in Metro Charlotte, Engineered Electrical Solutions is here to serve you.
We have completed hundreds of commercial electrician projects for companies like Blue Oyster Restaurant, Shell Gas Stations, Flex Warehouses, Dentist Offices, and many more. With the most up-to-date equipment and years of professional experience, our team is ready to tackle your electrical problem, no matter how large.
A few of our most popular commercial and industrial electrical services include but are not limited to:
Your businesses' electrical system will trip when it has too much electricity running through it. These problems are very common in commercial properties and usually stem from one of three culprits: circuit overloads, short circuits, and ground fault surges. Obviously, when your circuits are tripped regularly, your business operations suffer. To help solve your circuit breaker problems, our commercial electricians will come to your location for in-depth troubleshooting. Once we discover the root cause, we'll get to work on repairing your circuit breaker, so you can continue working and serving your customers.
Like tripped circuit breakers, dimming or flickering lights are among the most common commercial electrical problems in South Carolina. These issues typically stem from poor electrical connections. These poor connections will usually cause sparks, which can start fires and wreak havoc on your commercial building. While dimming lights might seem minor, if you leave this problem to fester, you could be looking at permanent damage to your businesses' electrical systems. Given the danger involved in fixing this problem, it's important that you work with a licensed business electrician like Engineered Electrical Solutions as soon as you're able to.
Dead power outlets aren't always dangerous, unlike other recurring commercial electrical issues. They are, however, disruptive to your company's productivity. Dead outlets are common in older commercial buildings and are often caused by circuit overloads. Connecting multiple high-wattage devices and appliances to the same power socket can cause overheating. When the power outlet overheats, it can lead to tripped circuit breakers. In some cases, the live wire catches fire and burns until it is disconnected. For a reliable solution using high-quality switches, sockets, and circuit breakers, it's best to hire a professional business electrician to get the job done right.
Finding a real-deal, qualified commercial electrician in South Carolina is harder than you might think. Whether it's due to availability or budget, you might be tempted to hire a residential electrician for your commercial electrical problem. While it's true that great residential electricians can help solve commercial issues in theory, it's always best to hire a business electrician with professional experience.
Unlike their residential colleagues, commercial electricians are licensed to deal with different materials and procedures suited specifically for businesses. Commercial wiring is much more complex than residential, and is strategically installed with maintenance, repair, and changes in mind. Additionally, commercial properties usually use a three-phase power supply, necessitating more schooling, skills, and technical ability to service.
The bottom line? If you're a business owner with commercial electricity problems, it's best to work with a licensed commercial electrician, like you will find at Engineered Electrical Solutions.

The latest 2023 NFL Mock Draft here at NFL Mocks features a trade between the Seahawks and Panthers, and Seattle moving back up for their long-term QB.
The 2023 NFL Draft process is firmly underway. With the Super Bowl finished up, head coaching hires set, and the page turned to 2023, the NFL Draft will take center stage.
Not everything is nailed down yet of course. The NFL Scouting Combine is going to be a week of “risers” entering the first round or day two chat. Plenty of players are going to test phenomenally, and the rumor mill will be swirling with the league descended on Indianapolis. There’s also free agency, where teams will look to reload where they can before the draft.
But, we’re going to try to project as best we can in this 2023 NFL Mock Draft. This is this writer’s last mock before the combine, so projecting those results will be in here too. This 2023 NFL Mock Draft spans two rounds, and features the Seahawks maneuvering around the board and going a bit off-book. Off we go!
In this scenario, the Chicago Bears don’t end up finding a trade partner or enough capital to feel good about moving down. Instead, they stay and select a player who will fit well as an attacking three technique in Matt Eberflus’ defense. Jalen Carter is a relentless pass rusher with limitless power. His ability to hold his ground, get off blocks, and sit to leverage against the run is impressive, and he has counters to get after the quarterback.
The Houston Texans don’t have to move up in this 2023 NFL Mock Draft and get the consensus QB1 in the class at pick two in Bryce Young. The size will be the question of course, especially with confirmed numbers at the combine. But, he is the best football player of the bunch at quarterback right now. His anticipatory throws, great field vision, impressive accuracy, and creativity out of structure makes him a great blend of what’s always been important at quarterback and what is more important now.
The Arizona Cardinals recently hired Jonathan Gannon as their head coach. That doesn’t necessarily mean that they’ll go incredibly defense-heavy in the 2023 NFL Draft, but with this pick, the value is very clear. Will Anderson has the production in terms of pressures and sacks, and is a dominant run defender as well. He instantly elevates the defensive line and the unit as a whole.
Will the Shane Steichen hire by Indy influence their quarterback preferences? Perhaps, but in this 2023 NFL Mock Draft, they go with a player that has been linked to them for a while, at least in the media. Chris Ballard has talked about prototypical size at the quarterback position, and Will Levis has that. Levis has the strong arm and can make the wow throws on film while operating play action extremely well. He’s been dogged a lot in draft circles, but his 2021 film should show the player he can be.
Details: Panthers send picks 9, 39, for pick 5
The Carolina Panthers don’t waste any time after two quarterbacks go in this 2023 NFL Mock Draft, moving up and sending a second-round pick for pick five. Here, they grab a nice fit for Frank Reich’s offense in C.J. Stroud. Stroud has high-level accuracy for the quarterback position, making well-placed throws outside the numbers and in between defenders. His off-script ability and handling pressure has waned at times, but the Georgia game clearly showed he has it when he wants to go to it.
The Detroit Lions have plenty of options at pick six in this 2023 NFL Mock Draft. They can opt for a strong side defensive end to complement Aidan Hutchinson on the defensive line, or go the corner route. They choose the latter here, getting a top corner in Christian Gonzalez. Gonzalez has impressive speed and hip fluidity for a big corner, and his ball skills and recognition skills make for a complete player on the perimeter.
A bit of a changeup for the Raiders in this 2023 NFL Mock Draft. Quarterback and tackle have been the favorites, but the secondary isn’t very good either. Devon Witherspoon would bring a new mentality to the defensive back room with how physical he plays, but his man cover skills are what will be crucial for a defense that needs to contend with top offenses out west.
The Atlanta Falcons have struggled to pressure the quarterback for years, and now they finally have a true disruptor along their line on the edge. Tyree Wilson is big, long, and explosive, and should wreak havoc alongside Grady Jarrett early on in his career.

Good news for Carolinians enduring high monthly heating bills this winter:
Charlotte, Raleigh and Rock Hill can expect temperatures 30 degrees above normal toward the end of the work week, a National Weather Service meteorologist said Saturday.
Charlotte could tie its record high temperature for February, NWS records show.
It’s almost impossible to imagine, given Charlotte’s lows in the 20s and 30s Saturday morning.
Credit a weather system that’s predicted to reach the Carolinas from the tropical Caribbean Sea, meteorologist Chris Horne of the NWS office in Greer, South Carolina, told The Charlotte Observer.
On Thursday, the highs in Charlotte, Raleigh and Rock Hill could soar to 82 degrees, according to the NWS forecasts for the cities at 9 a.m. Saturday.
“We have a strengthening subtropical upper-level high area extending from the tropics that is driving this,” Horne said “The quote-un-quote heat wave will be on Thursday.”
Charlotte and Raleigh see average highs of about 54 degrees each Feb. 1 and 60 degrees by Feb. 28, Horne said. The average daily highs for the cities usually fall within a degree of each other, he said.
At 82 degrees, Charlotte’s high on Thursday would tie the city’s record for February. The city reached 82 three times over the decades, on Feb. 16, 2018; Feb. 27, 2011; and Feb. 25, 1930, NWS records show.
Raleigh’s record February high stands at 84 degrees, set on Feb. 26, 1977, Horne said. The city also reached 83 a couple of times over the decades, he said.
Rock Hill set its February high record at 83 degrees on Feb. 27, 1996, Horne said.
Highs for Charlotte, Raleigh and Rock Hill are expected to dip into the low 70s by the weekend, still well above the normal daily average highs, Horne said.
Highs over the week are predicted to gradually climb in the cities.
For Charlotte, the NWS predicts highs rising from 54 Saturday to 57 Sunday, 67 Monday, 70 Tuesday and 77 Wednesday.
In Raleigh, highs could climb from 52 Saturday to 60 Sunday, 67 Monday, 71 Tuesday and 76 Wednesday, according to the forecast.
In Rock Hill, the forecast calls fro highs of 54 Saturday, 58 Sunday, 68 Monday, 70 Tuesday and 78 Wednesday.

CHARLOTTE – The Panthers made another hire to head coach Frank Reich's staff Saturday, bringing on Shawn Jefferson to coach wide receivers.
Jefferson, 53, has 17 years of NFL coaching experience on top of 13 years as a player, making two Super Bowl appearances as a wide receiver with the Chargers and Patriots.
Here are five fast facts to know about Jefferson:
1. Coming from the Cardinals: Jefferson arrives at Carolina after working as wide receivers coach for two seasons in Arizona. In 2021, the Cardinals' pass game averaged 251.5 yards per game, the 10th-best in the NFL. Jefferson worked with five-time Pro Bowler DeAndre Hopkins during his tenure and helped Christian Kirk earn career-high marks in receptions and receiving yards in 2021. Jefferson was promoted to associate head coach for the 2022 season while still coaching receivers.
2. Previous coaching stops: Before landing in Arizona, Jefferson held positions with Detroit (2006-12), Tennessee (2013-15), Miami (2016-18), and the New York Jets (2019-20). He overlapped with new Panthers quarterbacks coach Josh McCown's playing years when the two were both at Detroit in 2006 – McCown as a backup to Jon Kitna and Jefferson as an offensive assistant. He also has history with Sam Darnold, who played with the Jets during Jefferson's time as an assistant head coach and wide receivers coach in New York.
3. Working with Calvin Johnson: Jefferson played a role in developing Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver Calvin Johnson while the two were together in Detroit from 2007-12. Johnson set the NFL single-season record in receiving yards with 1,964 in 2012 and was selected to three Pro Bowls while being coached by Jefferson. Johnson also had four 1,000-yard seasons (2008; 2010-12) and led the NFL in receiving yards twice (2011-12).
4. Playing experience: Prior to entering the coaching ranks, Jefferson played in the NFL for 13 years with four different teams (Chargers, Patriots, Falcons, and Lions). He appeared in 195 games, including 12 postseason matchups, and made it to two Super Bowl appearances – once with the Chargers in Super Bowl 29 and again with the Patriots in Super Bowl 31. Jefferson's career ended with 470 receptions for 7,023 yards and 29 touchdowns, and he was named to New England's All-1990s Team.
5. Son in the NFL: Shawn Jefferson's son, Van Jefferson, is an NFL wide receiver who started in 2020 after the Rams picked him in the second round following a college career at Ole Miss and Florida. Van Jefferson won a Super Bowl with the Rams following the 2021 season, helping Los Angeles defeat the Bengals in Super Bowl LVI.

SALT LAKE CITY (AP) — Ben Affleck was 12 years old in 1984 and growing up in the Boston area. The Celtics were NBA champions. The Red Sox and Patriots were respectable. The Bruins got swept in the first round of the playoffs.
And that also was when Nike was betting much of its future on Michael Jordan.
Part of that tale will be told in the upcoming film “Air,” which Affleck directed and stars in alongside Matt Damon, Viola Davis, Jason Bateman and more. Affleck plays Nike co-founder Phil Knight, and Damon plays then-Nike executive Sonny Vaccaro — who was tasked with finding a way of saving what was then the company’s fledgling basketball division.
Affleck did it with one key character absent: Jordan is not shown in the movie.
“What I wanted to try to accomplish was to have Michael Jordan have the effect in the story that he has in the world, which is that obviously the vast majority of people don’t know and have never met Michael Jordan — and yet they know about him, and they know what he means and they might talk about him,” Affleck said. “So, in a way, he’s like a presence that’s felt and discussed and everybody else around him is there. But you never see his face.”
Nike wound up signing Jordan — who had yet to play an NBA game — to a $2.5 million, five-year deal.
It was a huge gamble.
Spoiler alert, with apologies to the movie that gets released April 5: It worked out.
Jordan Brand generated $4.7 billion in revenue in 2021, the Jumpman logo is iconic, Nike has become one of the world’s most powerful and recognizable companies, and Jordan won six NBA championships, became a billionaire, and now owns the Charlotte Hornets.
And since most viewers will already know all those things, Affleck took on the challenge of telling lesser-known parts of the story.
“The movie has to do realistic, it has to do authentic, and it has to surprise the audience,” Affleck said. “Because if what happens is something that the audience can predict, even if they like it, they go along with it, it’s ordinary, it’s boring. It’s just not what I want to do.”
The trailer, released last week, is up to 6 million views. Affleck was at All-Star weekend to help promote Friday’s celebrity game, and ads for the film were shown on the jumbo scoreboards over the court.
Affleck said he has met with Jordan about the movie.
“Somebody asked me what you’re doing from Boston and making a movie about the Chicago guy,” Affleck said in an interview with a number of media outlets. “Michael Jordan sort of transcends, I think, rivalry.”

Many have praised the recent makeover of the Panthers’ coaching staff including the main additions of head coach Frank Reich, defensive coordinator Ejiro Evero, and offensive coordinator Thomas Brown. Having those three major positions filled, Carolina has been able to explore filling other, less major position coaching roles.
Firstly, following the suggestions of general manager Scott Fitterer and owner David Tepper, Reich made the decision to retain offensive line coach James Campen, assistant offensive line coach Robert Kugler, and special teams coach Chris Tabor from last year’s staff, according to Panthers staff writer Darin Gantt. The Panthers made massive strides in offensive line play last season thanks not only to the additions of rookie tackle Ikem Ekwonu, guard Austin Corbett, and center Bradley Bozeman but to the influence of Campen and Kugler, as well. Similarly, Carolina’s special teams unit excelled during Tabor’s first year in the position.
The team also made a key addition to the offensive staff, bringing in former Cardinals associate head coach and wide receivers coach Shawn Jefferson to fill their new wide receivers coach role, according to Gantt. Jefferson adds to the growing group of Panthers coaches with past experience playing in the NFL, having spent 13 seasons as a wide receiver in the league. After bouncing around five other franchises as an assistant coach, Jefferson has become well-respected in coaching circles. Along with other teams, the Jets reportedly had interest in bringing him back to their staff after his stint in New York from 2019-2020, according to Josina Anderson of CBS Sports.
On the defensive side of the ball, the Panthers have brought in an exciting trio of position coaches. Gantt reports that the assistant coach leading Carolina’s defensive line next season will be former Jaguars defensive coordinator Todd Wash. Wash was leading the Jacksonville defense back when they last advanced to the AFC championship game on the backs of a defense that earned the nickname “Sacksonville.” He’s a distinguished veteran who has been coaching in Detroit the past two seasons.
Joining Wash in rushing the quarterback will be new outside linebackers coach Tem Lukabu, according to Gantt. Lukabu has previously coached linebackers at the NFL-level in Cincinnati but has spent the past three years as the defensive coordinator at Boston College.
If Lukabu needs any tips on coaching his position, he will have the benefit of assistance from the team’s new safeties coach, Bert Watts, who did an admirable job coaching an injured outside linebackers group in Denver last year. Watts is a valuable addition from Ejiro’s staff last season as many in coaching circles view him as a future defensive coordinator, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network.
Additionally, Gantt reports that the Panthers have agreed to terms with former NFL cornerback DeAngelo Hall to become their new assistant defensive backs coach and former Cardinals assistant special teams coach Devin Fitzsimmons to serve in the same position in Carolina. ESPN’s Adam Schefter adds that, despite his insistence on remaining at ESPN, the Panthers joined the Colts in pursuing former NFL quarterback and current ESPN analyst Dan Orlovsky for “prominent offensive coaching roles.”
Despite missing out on Orlovsky, the Panthers are building a strong, experienced staff. Not only are they rich in years of coaching experience, but most of their new staff holds experience playing in the NFL, as well.
