We believe a successful project begins with our people. Direct principal involvement with every project allows us to merge your vision with our practical experience to achieve your goals. Our work is responsive, innovative, and dedicated to project delivery. We strive to provide our clients with substantial return on investment regardless of whether the performance metric is financially or philosophically motivated. Sustainable design should be responsible to the pocketbook as well as the environment. Founded in 2002, Skyline Engineering is a full service mechanical and electrical consulting firm holding professional registrations in South Dakota and the upper Midwest. We are also registered with the National Council of Examiners for Engineering and Surveying (NCEES) allowing us to quickly become registered in any state should the need arise. Beyond our core services of mechanical and electrical engineering, we are known regionally for our specialized skills related to geothermal systems, indoor air quality, and lighting design. The proactive approach we take during the design allows us to enjoy open working relationships with the architect, owner, facility user groups, authorities having jurisdiction, and utility providers – everyone who could, and should, impact the facility design. Our experience spans the breadth of project delivery methods including traditional design-bid-build, design-build, construction manager at risk, and integrated project delivery. Irrespective of whether we are engaged by an owner, architect, or contractor, we understand the nuances of each delivery method as well as the requirements and duties of each party during every stage of the delivery process. Listen, understand, and then deliver – we focus to solve your needs by delivering a quality project on time and within budget.

Electrical questions, answered by experts

Black is the standard color for hot wires, which transfer electricity to your outlets and switches. Red wires are also hot wires. White (and sometimes gray) wires are considered neutral, delivering power back to the panel. Finally, green wires, which are sometimes bare copper, are ground wires, used to ground an electrical circuit and prevent electrocution.

Electrical fires are unique from other fire types because they have the potential to deliver electric shocks in addition to being on fire. Avoid serious injury from possible electrical emergency situations by avoiding the use of water, foam-based fire extinguishers, wet-chemical fire extinguishers,  flour, or baking powder to put out an electrical fire. 

If you’re wondering whether an electrical panel in the bathroom needs to be moved, the answer is yes. Due to the risks of shocks and electrical fires, electrical panels cannot be located in bathrooms per National Electric Code Volume 70. Additionally, gasses, vapors, liquids, and temperature fluctuations can all compromise the functionality of your electrical panel, so it’s important to install it in a dry, cool, safe, and easily accessible location.

A new circuit breaker costs anywhere between $10 and $100 on average, depending on the type of circuit breaker. A standard circuit breaker is the most affordable, while a GFCI or AFCI circuit breaker will cost the most. If you’re upgrading to a higher amperage, anticipate paying closer to $250 to $350 for a 200-amp circuit breaker.

Most household circuits can handle about 70 strings of 50 standard mini lights, or up to 600 strings of LED lights, which consume less power than the incandescent variety. Make sure to factor in any appliances also running on the circuit.
