Trusted Electrical Engineering Experts

Based in Central NC, Laird Engineering Consultants (LEC) provides power system design and optimazation studies throughout the USA. The same licensed PE that field verifies your system will follow the project through the entire process to final reports and sealed CAD drawings. We offer gap analysis and mitgation strategies to remove deficiencies and plan for future growth.

Ensuring Compliance

LEC helps ensure compliace with NEC and NFPA 70E requirements, from calcualted short circuit ratings on service entrance equipment to applying vinyl arc flash labels throughout your facility. The same engineer that performs a study will also apply labels on site to prevent misapplication. The safety of your personnel and outside service contractors is too important to leave to chance.

I’ve worked with Dan Laird for 5 years now over a variety of projects in multiple states. I’m impressed with his technical depth in both MV and LV power distribution as well as his focus on meeting the customers needs. He performs great Arc Flash Analysis for Boise at competitive pricing while effectively working with local mills electrical staff. In short, I think he does high quality work while focusing on what we value. Thank you, Dan, for providing a great service to Boise Cascade over the years.
