Just curious what people are getting quoted/billed to run power to their garage?
I asked for a quote to run future proof service to my garage with the ability to handle two Tesla Model S High Power Wall Chargers (each with a backup NEMA 14-50 next it).
I got a quote for the following work:
Quote was not to exceed $6500.
PS - I should have my P85+ in a couple weeks.
Edit: To clarify, my home already has 400 amp service.
