The electrical estimates you generate serve as the foundation for your entire project’s planning, execution, and profitability. Accurate estimating is crucial to avoid cost overruns and ensure timely project delivery.
Various proven methods are used in electrical estimating to calculate costs based on project scope, materials, labor, and location. Here are the key methods:
This method assigns a fixed cost to each type of fixture, outlet, or installation point. You simply multiply the number of units by their assigned cost to reach the total estimate:
Related electrical components are grouped into predefined systems or assemblies, with each bundle carrying a combined cost for materials and labor:
Used mainly in design-build projects, this method involves the electrical contractor handling both the design and execution of the work.
Modern estimating software like Accubid, Trimble, and PlanSwift provides a data-driven approach by inputting materials, labor types, hours, and project specifics to generate accurate estimates.
This method is experience-based guessing rather than calculation. While experienced contractors may get close, it’s a risky method for most.
