  • calling sparkies/electricians

    Hi guys

    I've acquired a petrol generator and a box that allows you to manually switch betweens mains and generator,

    how much would you charge to install this on the meter tail before the consumer fuse unit, and
    i have also got armoured cable and waterproof lugs to be fitted and an outside socket to plug the jenny into, a hole would need drilled through the exterior wall
    and this wired in
    so i have pretty much all the materials

    i've been quoted 327 plus VAT for the labour
    seems a bit steep for what i reckon is a 2-3 hour job ?
    or maybe im just in the wrong job!

    any ideas?

                            I'd have thought more like 4? But I've never actually done it so wouldn't argue.

                            As for a price to have your generator sorted out, I got quoted £70 to have a cooker wired up!
