The housing stock behind Union County's wiring
What the numbers mean at the panel, for a county inside this metro: 341,983 of the footprint's homes predate 1980, built when panels were smaller and circuits fewer; 461,677 arrived since 2000 with modern service sizes. Union County contains its own proportion of both — and a homeowner here can place their street in the ledger by its build decade alone, which is also how the electricians serving the county triage what they are likely to find. Its neighbours - Lancaster County, Anson County and Mecklenburg County - hold the same bands in different proportions, which is why their pages read differently from this one.
The climate Union County wiring works under
The same sky, read at county scale: Union County's 633 square miles take the CHARLOTTE DOUGLAS AP, NC US record - 49.2 hot days, 58.3 freezing nights, 43.6 inches of precipitation - and convert it into load on real systems, from the oldest farmhouse service to the newest subdivision panel. Extremes cluster here the way they do across the metro, because the weather that makes them crosses the whole footprint at once. From Union County's position - 21 miles south-east of the centre - those seasons arrive with the county's own exposure, not the core city's.
