Hi! I'm looking to get a Level 2 outlet, 240v NEMA 14-50 installed. I've been getting prices all over the place. Can anyone recommend a good electrician? Thanks!!
We ended up going with Murphy Family Electric for that exact service. Murphy Family Electric They were great, and quite a bit cheaper than some of the other quotes we got. Tempus
I used Southern Electric in Leesburg. I used them because they installed all the electrical in my new home. Prices were far less than Solar City (Mr. Electric). Southern Electrical Service Company - Full Service Electrical Contractors for DC, MD, VA WVA
I got 3 quotes for the work and they were ALL over the map (+/- $1000). I had the same installation as you w/ a NEMA 14-50 running a 50A circuit. In the end I went with Kolb Electric and they did a great job.
Thanks everyone! Yeah I'm getting prices way too varied. All I need is a 5 foot install from my main panel in the garage ... should be relatively easy to me =/ - - - Updated - - - Did you guys get a Permit? I'm in Solarcity is trying to charge me $300 for a permit lol
As an out of market point of reference (CT), I had a similar situation as you with a 10 ft horizontal run from panel to garage. My electrician did the following: Add a 50A breaker to the box Run conduit out of the panel, conceal in the ceiling and drop to 48" height Run wiring Install 14-50 outlet and box on an existing support pole Extra: installed a breaker and NEMA 5-20R outlet right next to panel (as long he was out here) Total cost: $385
FIA designs installed my HPWC, extra outlet and meter base for less than what others charged for an outlet - highly recommend 703-926-4108
Fwiw, I got quotes from Murphy, Kolb and Root. Murphy quoted the lowest price, but it was over the phone--they seemed reluctant to come out and actually look. I went with Root. They weren't too far off Murphy, and they came out, looked around and provided some good input on where to put everything. Had a 14-50 put in at the driveway in back and a 5-20 put in on the light pole in front. Total was about $1500, but each was at least a 30' run from the panel.
