Local conditions and common problems in South Carolina
South Carolina's climate and growth patterns present distinct challenges. In the Upstate, rapid industrial growth around Greenville and Spartanburg has increased the demand for worker housing, requiring fast-track schedules. In coastal areas like Charleston and Myrtle Beach, hurricane resilience and salt-air corrosion are major factors for electrical longevity. Coordinating with utilities like Dominion Energy SC and Duke Energy is essential for keeping projects on schedule.
