  Electric/Insulation Job estimate

I just received a quote for electrical installation in my 24x36 pole barn (also in upstate NY). I am in the same boat as you.... remote site... no time. Keeping in mind, my system will be much more basic than yours. 100a service with about 1/2 to the amount of materials and no insulation.

My quote included (from memory)

100a240v service panel
(6) 8' 2-lamp HO fixtures
(8) GFIC recepticles
(3) outside coach lights
all related branch circuts and materials
150' trench & backfill
all labor
inspection

.....$3,300

I thought about doing it myself. I priced all materials inclucing steel conduit and some other stuff not mentioned above through Lowes. Materials alone came to $1,500. Assume 3-days for installation at $60/hr (complete guess), and im up around $3000.

I would use his materials list, take it to a local electrical supplier; and get a materials quote. Subtract that from the Total, and you will know his labor cost. Then give him a call and ask how long he thinks the job will take, and how many guys he will be using. I would guess an electrician charges $50-$70/hr for his time, and maybe $30/hr for a helper (??)

I cant really comment on your quote, because you are doing a lot more. However, I will say that I really like the way your guy was so specific by listing each item.

Good Luck
